Tire pressue can be done with the button on the center console where the hand brake is.

ABS may be able to remove with and OBDII reader, but not sure.

You may have a bad wheel speed sensor

Yep, Checkmate is probably right. You need to get the codes to see the problem effectively, but it's more likely to be a "Steering Wheel Angle" sensor that is miss calibrated due to the drop. There are ways about it and your best source is to search MINI2.com on this issue and you will find lots of answers and how to

Good Luck...

I suggest jacking the car up and removing the wheels. Then find the wheel speed sensor on each wheel and follow the wire checking to make sure it hasn't got cut. Also make sure the front speed sensor wires on the front didn't get smashed when knocking loose the knuckle from the strut.
