Don't know where to post about ABS lite
I'm a Nu-B at this but I just got a set of 18" Ce28 put on after camber install to the rear yesterday. Now i got ABS light came on today. Any idea why this messes up my ABS? Before the camber and the rims was put on, I don't think the light was ever there. Is this going to be a problem? ANyone with this problem and know how to solve it? Thnx for reading.

Your front tire is 24.2" and your rear tire is 25.4". That difference of 1.2" from front to rear may be setting off your ABS light. I can't be positive of this since each car seems to be a little different in how diameter differences can affect ABS. You should still check the ABS sensor, wiring and sensor ring at each wheel to make sure none have sustained any damage. If you see no damage, then the only way to know for sure is to get a set of wheels and tires that are the same diameter front and back and try those on your car after you clear the ABS code.
How do i clear the ABS code? Do i have to take it to the dealer to do this?
And one more thing, when you said wheels and tire should be the same diameter for front and rear, do you mean i should keep this 18" and just change the front tire to 225/40/18 so the height is the same with the rear? Thanx Xviper for your reply. Seems like you really know what you're talking about. Learning new things everyday.

The manual says you need a Honda PGM tester to reset the light, but it "might" resolve itself if the problem is found.
Your rims have nothing to do with the rolling diameter of the rim/tire combination. You have a bad sizing for your tires (aspect ratio, to be precise).
Not sure why you have such weird tire sizing. Are you lowered? Is that why? Also, not knowing the width and offset of the rims, it's not possible to recommend a size of tire that would correct your situation.
You are running:
This is not really a good stagger.
If you're using 225 up front, you should be using a 255 in the rear. A 255/30/18 would be the better match, but these may not even be available nor can I say if they will fit on your rims and on your car. Those details are missing.
235 is too narrow for the rear no matter what you use (within reason) for the front. If you must change one tire size, make it the rear (if it will fit the rims and the car if lowered).

Ce28 18"x 7.5 +50 front and 18"x8.5 +47 rear. Lowered 1" and Camber install to the rear.
I have 225 up front and just got these 235 for the rear few days ago. Need recommend correct size with these offset please. I prefer to keep these 235 rear on if possible. If i change, i'll change the front but to what size can be use with 235 rear? thanx again.

You have several possibilities for combinations since you want to keep one or the other end with what you've got, so check the Wheel Fitment Guide to see all the options:

You can also use this diameter guide to try and get the diameter of tires that are the same:

o man, i wish i had this miata calculator before i purchase my tires. 
So if i read this correctly, i should be running 215/40/18 front and 245/35/18 rear. This is the closest to stock set up am i right?
If i was to run this set up, do you think it will shut off my ABS light since its only 0.4% faster on my odometer compare to stock size?
That fitment guide above confuses me a bit. THANX a million Xviper really. Appreciate your help. Everything seems clear to me now.
Ah!!! SO mad at myself!!! Always one step behind.
