No you don't The way that ABS system works is from a sensor mounted on the hub of the suspension, changing wheels sizes or tires will not effect the system at all.

The ABS sensors on this car are used by the BCM to identify a wheel that may be near a lock-up. Your car also has traction control. This system also uses the ABS sensors, and both traction control and anti-lock systems work hand-in-hand.
I have seen several of these with custom wheels and their owners report no problems.
If a problem develops, the ABS and/or TCS warning lamp will come on.
This is a warning that either one or both systems have been disabled by the computer. This doesn't mean that your car won't stop, it just means that the BCM/PCM has identified a problem that it doesn't understand, and will want you to take it to the shop.
And of course, you understand that your speedometer and odometer may be in need of re-calibration for accuracy and transmission shift control.

Not sure, doubt, that you can "recalibrate". The factory computer is expecting to see relitivly the same speed signal on all four wheels, if not the computer will think something is wrong.
