I want to change my front wheel to 17” is it will fit directly or i have to do some adjustments, from what i see I think the ABS will be a problem.
 
The ABS reads from the ring inside the hub and not affected by overall diameter of tire or wheel. BUT, I am not sure how sophisticated the computer is and what impacts the speed vs RPM which I am sure is part of it's calculations are going to affect the system.

Thank you Mr.Sean for your reply
When I changed my rear wheel to 17” the speed readings was changed, the speed readings was 149 when i was 138 in the track readings.

I think the speed readings comes from rear wheel, (maybe I’m wrong)
But what problems may happen?

and is the ABS system will fit directly without any adapter? ( just simply change the wheel? )
 
You could change it with a speedo healer? You "dial in" the percentage of correction that you want.

I am not sure how this system works but it's looking for a certain number of pulses and I would suspect it thinks there should be a number in relationship to RPM as well as MPH. Alter one of those and maybe it messes with the system and maybe it doesn't.
