    I know a mate of mine was disappointed when he bought some different tyres to track his SP and then found out the menu on the dash to change tyre sizes was greyed out. Spoke to the dealer and recommended he only use oem tyre size otherwise there would be issues with abs or traction... cant remember which.

    May have been sorted/unlocked for 2018?

    Not done it myself, but USA owners have made the same complaint about 'messing up' dash readings etc. Similarly, Honda USA offered the same stern advice - use recommended tyre sizes. The solution might be to try to siphon info from Ten Kate or other race team (if anyone else races Hondas now:rolleyes:) and seek thier input.
