New Tires/ESP
I just installed new 285/75/16 tires with new wheels (4.5BS) and there are no rubbing issues to speak of but when making right hand turns on uneven pavement at higher speeds the ESP is coming on which had never happened until the installation of the tires/wheels.
Is this normal?

I'm not sure why the ESP light would be on but if you mean the TPMS light it would be because the old valve stems have sensors on them which comunicate low air pressure to the vehicle and without the sensors on the new wheels your jeep thinks you have flat tires. You'll need to have the TPMS sensors put in the new wheels.
