Hey guys - long story short I ended up doing some work today - here's what I did:
1) Removed the softtop and reinstalled all of the trim and wiring.
2) Installed my 17x10+52 wheels with 255 tire all around. Maxed the camber on my car for now to help make them fit. I am sure toe is completely off as well.
During this process I ended up putting the keys in the ignition. I have my SRS airbag light on (because the wiring for the seat wasn't hooked up) which is understandable.
But why is my VSA and my traction control light on? (The light lettered "VSA" as well as the "!" light.) Did I screw something up here? I didn't unplug anything or damage any line of any sort. I also have coilovers on the car if it matters. On my previous 07 I never had this issue and I ran 17x9+40 all around non-stagger with 255's and I never once got the light. Can anyone please shed some light on this issue?
Thanks in advance guys I really appreciate any help.

I had the same fault about a week after fitting my Volks wheels, it was a total coincidence as the VSA module Failure is a common fault and nothing to do with the wheels. Honda replaced my Module under warranty and its been fine ever since. Get the Fault code read and then go from there.

I'll go ahead and see if I can get the fault read today. Thanks for the response!

VSA and ABS are linked so if one fails you'll get a warning light for both. The VSA uses the ABS sensors so it maybe a faulty sensor but my guess is the VSA module failure

You'll get the ABS light on when you run a car on the dyno. The car thinks you're spinning the rear wheels to hell while the fronts are staying put. Drive 200 feet and they should turn off right away.
