Recent version of ftplugin/python.vim has the following lines:
https://github.com/vim/vim/blob/8fe1000e9c3438d0ff36cf2340f0f0e48f8fb89f/runtime/ftplugin/python.vim#L116-L119

So, if you don't want do use the recommended indent style,
write the following setting in your .vimrc:

  let g:python_recommended_style = 0

Older versions of ftplugin/python.vim may not have the setting.
Then you may need to overwrite the recommended setting by autocommand or 
some other way.

Regards,
Ken Takata

To see what's going on when pressing Tab (and possibly propose a solution 
for your issue), it would be good to know the values of some settings. Open 
a python file, run the following and post the result:
:verbose set sts? ts? et? rtp?
