We had our i Miev in the shop for a service and they installed new front tires. Since then, when I take a corner a bit faster (not even close to sliding) the ABS jumps in and starts breaking and horrible noises. Its quite dangerous because it's startling. The only workaround for now is to turn off traction control.
Shop told us to overinflate the rear tires because apparently there could be a slight mismatch. This hasn't really helped and it sounds like an easy-out for them. Any suggestions?

Thanks a lot

Yes, that’s a know issue with a triplet, the car compares wheel speeds, therefore having uneven tyre wear (or a faulty speed sensor) might cause the problem described
