I am currently running 285/30-19s (front) and 345/30-19s (rear). These tire diameters measure 65.36 cm and 68.96 cm respectively for a 5.51% difference between front and rear.

Stock set up is 64.97 cm (front) and 65.82 (rear) for a 1.31% difference between front and rear.

Shouldn't the ABS be adversely affected because of the increase in difference of rotation between the front and rear as opposed to stock?

The ABS just counts teeth. As long as the count for each wheel is steady, no problem. It's only when the computer sees a drastically lower 'count' does the ABS release the brake on that wheel. Same thing for the space saver spare. Now if it had a stability control system...NOT.
