Its definitely not the tire sizes, those are very close in diameter.

Chris, what are you running in the rear, that is the question since that where the slip sensors and vdc box are located

Essentially what your doing is changing the "track" of the car to a wider stance which goes outside of what the cars parameters can measure and while in a turn, the wheel that is to the inside of the corner will turn slightly slower than the wheel that is on the outside which is rotating faster, tripping the vehicle dynamic control that the car is in a slip if that make any sense

Sensor wont fix it...you changed the track of the car. The cars ECU was not programmed to have that wide of a track with over 3" more track that you added. Just turn the VDC off.

If your Lights are still on, you can reset them by disconnecting the negative battery terminal for 3 minutes.

So if this is the case I'm surprised that we haven't heard about this issue before in this thread given that there are some Zs and Gs who post in here who have very aggressive steups.

The question is, how many people get in their car and automatically turn VDC OFF? Im guilty!
