Ever since I bought my snow tires (Bridgestone Blizzacks) for the rear end of my car, every time I take a sharp curve or go around a clover leaf. The ABS kicks on? Never did that with the Perrelli's?

Anyone? Someone?

Are you sure it's not the traction control? The snow tires won't be able to handle the turns at the same rate of speed as the Pirelli's and perhaps they are losing traction.

never happened in my Pirrellis. The scorpions are magical. She drives better than my old Wrangler.

You know.. Thinking about it, it is traction control.. When takinging a ramp say to the right, the back left feels like its dragging and the TC light flashes? Ive never had snow tires before due to owning Jeeps and such so im new at the whole snow tire on car thing..
