Default tires,antilock brakes

I want to put wide tires on the rear and keep narrow ones on the front
but, I was told I might have problems with the abs- the computer might
think theres slipage from the different tires.
Can I go with narrow / wide as long as they are the same size-is there
a tolerance that can be, like a 1/16 or 3mm or do they have to be
exactly the same size. And what about weight is that a factor?

Can you help, Thanx Ricco

well I've been reading his responses to people with the same question
and as long as it no more than 3% height difference between front and
back tires the abs should not be affected.
