My experience has been that the system relearns/adapts to changing tire diameters.

Several years ago I put a 25.5" front tire on (compared to stock 26.7"), with a rear 26.3 (compared to stock 26.5").

For only a moment, the VDC system was activating while trying to drive straight and the car would barely drive, then after a block or two everything was back to normal. Maybe I turned the car off and back on I dont remember. But either way, that was it.
