18" to 20" wheels causing issues

Swapped my wheels back to my factory 20" wheels with new non RFT ps4s. I had the 18s on for about 10k miles.

Since I've swapped them I've noticed while regularly accelerating in first gear a subtle popping that almost feels like wheel spin. After I get past ~5-10mph it stops popping and will only do 3 or 4 pops. I figure it's the transfer case.

I have swapped wheel sizes many time previously and never had any issues with it because it seemed the car learned the new wheels and adjusted the speedo too. I never had an issue with this popping before.

Now my question is, can I some how tell the car it has 20s now or engage some learning process? I am worried that the XHP transmission flash is not allowing the car to learn the new size.

Thank you!
