Default brakes with bigger tires

So I put 33's on and now there is a groan every time I stop. Almost like the ABS kicking on. Anyone else had this?

Bigger tires mean bigger and better brakes,try EBC brakes out.

Try cleaning your sensor?and maybe the abs sensor is bad I think you can just disconnect those try a search on the abs brake system on here or the other jeep sites. good luck.
