An inch difference in diameter is probably going to throw VDC into a wobbly.

Your current tyre diameter is within 4mm btw.

If these are "Corsa", they are a full R-Spec tyre and will either wear stupid fast OR heat-cycle out quickly and go out to lunch and lose grip (R-Spec's are only good for 20 to 30 heat cycles and then the rubber loses it ability to grip regardless of the thread remaining)
Would a normal drive generate enough heat to make a heat cycle? I was under the impression a pedestrian drive would just be "wear" but not achieving a heat cycle. Just want to learn. I have no experience in Corsas or Cup tires or R comps in general

Op, Its been a while since i researched the vdc issue due to tire size, so it seems like my comment was incorrect.
