Default AbS problems

I have a 2007 2 door automatic Sahara. I put a set of 285/70 17 Kelly Safari tsr tires on it and now when I go into a sharp or long curve the abs and traction control start going crazy. I have tried disabling the traction control but it still jerks the wheel. I am thinking of getting the superchips programmer if that will fix the problem and I also want to change the shift points in the transmission.

You mean the ESP right??? Well for the ESP problem.....Sad to say the superchips won't work for that. I have an 07 2door,4" TF and 37's and had the exact same problem. I bought my superchips and I wasn't able to touch any programs for Traction control/ESP. After doing some digging..... There is two things I found out that you can do.
1. The 07's didn't get the program for the "steering wheel dance". The classic thing that the manual says to do to turn it all off. Soooooo there was a recall for it(that I didn't know about until after step 2). Go to a dealer and see if they can install.
Or
2. Do an ESP kill-switch. A wire found under the dash and slap a switch on it. That way you can spin your tires all day and the computer can't do a damn thing. And also take corners as fast as you want no problem. Best thing about the kill-switch is to flip it back on and everything is back to normal the next time you start the jeep.

If you want exact step by step simple direction to the kill switch, message me and I'll sent it to ya. It's super easy.
