I'd be thinking more along the lines of a worn tyre being more likely
to trigger a skid (and ABS action) vs one grippy tyre. However, the
ABS on the 156 is a 4 channel system (IIRC) so the wheels should
operate independently.

Whether it's wise or not to run a tyre any less than 3mm (in Winter
too) would a more important issue IMO.
