Slip light flashes at high rpm

Hi Guys, any idea why the slip light flashes at high rpm when you floor it at highway speed? This doesnt happen off the line unless the road is uneven or the car is actually spinning the wheels. Mine is RWD not AWD original wheels were 225/50/18 front and 245/45/18 rear factory which had a -0.7% circumference difference and new ones are 245/35/20 front and 275/30/20 rear which have a -1.1% circumference difference to keep the stagered fitment could that little bit of extra -0.4% difference be causing the car to think its spinning the wheels? Tyres Nitto nt555 G2 and have even wear, 38psi all round and aligned. Theres no way my wheels are spinning at highway speed haha

I can't say "yes", but it's quite possible. Why didn't you go with 245 on the front wheels?

sorry about that, typo, the fronts are 245’s will correct now if i went 285’s at the rear that would bring the circumference difference to 0.4% however thats still different to factory 0.7% difference
