Default New 370Z wheel sizes and TCS & ABS

Has anyone noticed that Nissan has changed up the front/rear tire circumference differences on the new 370Z? This may be important in relationship to TCS & ABS controls and tire size selection.

Bridgestone Potenza RE050A
F: P245/40R19 26.8" circumference
R P275/35R19 26.5" circumference
Diff: 0.3" front bias

Yokohama ADVAN Sport
F: P225/50R18 27.0" circumference
R: P245/45R18 26.7" circumference
Diff: 0.3" front bias

I wonder how this is going to affect all those enthusiasts that were planning to swap there rim/tire combinations from their 350z's. I know it may affect my plans to use the Volks and tires I have as ALL the 350Z's have a rear circumference differencial bias required for there ABS and TCS controls. Definitely have to carefully scrutinize the details of the TCS and ABS systems for the new 370Z.
