Installed new rims, ABS light, brake light & traction control light came on

So I had been running with two sets of rims since two of my stockers got bent due to ridiculous potholes around here.

I found a good deal on a set of rims and put them on

18x8.5 front w/ 235/40/18
18x9.5 rear w/ 275/40/18

I know the rears are ridiculously big, and this MAY be the cause of these lights as they have never come on before I put those rims on.

Is there a way I can get these to turn off? I don't like the idea of not having any of those systems not working in my daily driver.

Guess I'll have to live with it until I can buy a new set of tires.
