slip light on gauge cluster

for some reason on my g35 when i hit a turn, slow or fast the slip light came on then the car would feel like the tires are rubbing but not sure what the problem is, the car is lowered on tein springs. thinking the traction control is engaging and holding the car back, anybody experience this problem

running 235 3519 front, 275 30 19 rear, when i hit a turn the steering wheel would shake and it feels like the tires are rubbing but it has never before, i think it has something to do with the traction control cause the slip light comes on and the traction control is holding the car back hence the shaking on the steering wheel

I have stock suspension and stock rims/tires...I hit a sharp turn going about 40 mph and I felt the same thing that B1 is describing. It felt like the tires were rubbing and the steering wheel was shaking...Someone please let me know if this is normal or if I have a problem.

WEIRD? Does this happen when really driving hard? I am wondering if you are actually pushing the front (understeer) and getting the wheel vibration there? Sot sure why you would hear tire rubbing unless your offsets are way off, but Sundeviljay says his car is stock with the same problem? Does this happen all the time or just here and there? I wish I could be of more help, I will ponder it a bit more and offer any sensible solutions I can?

Mine is too, just had the right control arm fixed under warranty due to it pulling to the right all the time. As long as your car is not "jerry rigged" together, you really should not have a problem! Just to be sure, I had the tires checked for balance and aligned as well before taking it to the dealer.
