I've also think there is a whooshing noise a bit like a turbo noise and this has all happend since I put the larger wheels on
 
Could be worn suspension bushes setting down, noise could be tyres.

Thanks for the reply but it's definitely the abs as I took the fuse out and it doesn't do it but this has only happened since I put the bigger wheels on
 
Copied from your other thread.

Someone will be able to explain why the different wheel/tyre does this I am sure.
Sorry to be a 'party pooper' but it may interest you to know that that you are putting yourself on offer by disabling the ABS because that constitutes Dangerous Condition……………look at part 8 in this link.

I would suggest solving the problem rather than hiding it.
