This is a constant source of annoyance for doing precise turning with high-friction wheels. Some solutions that have worked for us in the past:

1) Figure out what the minimum required output is to get the robot to turn at all. If the PID output is less than this magnitude, output this magnitude (with the same sign as the PID output).

2) Instead of using your heading PID loop to generate PWM commands directly, use it to generate velocity commands that a second PID loop on each side of the drive will attempt to follow. Note that good velocity control at low speeds requires a really fast control loop and accurate velocity measurement. The CAN Talon SRX and CTRE Mag Encoder have impressed us in this regard.

3) Motion profiling can help (a bit) to ensure that the robot smoothly glides to its final heading, but this method works best in conjunction with 1 and/or 2.
