I can easily understand the issue of a mismatched size within the four rolling tires, though even there, the simple action of differential wheel speed on inside and outside tires of the same size, rounding a corner results in a small difference, but a different size all the way around would not trigger the sort of speed sensor differential that triggers the ABS or TCS functions. Especially since, as far as I recall, this platform has been delivered with a variety of wheels diameters, widths and tire sizes/profiles."
In simple terms, ABS uses the wheel sensors which determine speed to determine when ABS is needed and when to release it. Number of rotations will be higher or lower then depending on whether you increase or decrease OEM tire sizes.
