I want to get these JUBU gold wheels in 19 inches to save weight and track the car, but they emailed me that they don't know how they will affect my ABS.
Does anyone have 19 inch wheels on their car who can verify if ABS is working properly? What can I expect if I do put on the 19s?

43 pounds in unsprung weight savings would be amazing!

What you've posted shows 20" rims. What are the specs for 19's?
 
I’ve never heard of rim size impacting abs. Maybe he meant whether 19s will clear your brakes?

Like wise, the only other thing is to ensure you select the correct tyre size to ensure the circumference ratio is maintained front to rear. I’ve just had a look on one of those tyre size comparison sites and the difference between front and rear for standard tyres is 0.7% if the 19” tyres you select start going out from this by to much that can cause ABS issues

So I will choose a tire close to original diameter regardless of wheel size.

I would prefer to use slicks in the same size and rotate them because the fronts wear more.
But if anyone recommends a staggered setup please let me know.
