i got some nitto mud grappler yesterday. before i had bfg A/T.
the nittos are 37x13.50r17 and the bfgs were 37x12.50r18.
i never had a single problem with the bfgs, but now that i have the nittos when ever i go around a turn kinda fast the traction control kicks in. im not sure what it is doing because im not spinning or anything, then it affects my steering at the same time.

has this happened to anyone else?
does anyone know what is causing it?
any comments, help, tips, anything will help
Thanks

 

1. check tire PSI's.

2. make sure your front axle is properly aligned.

3. make sure you steering wheel is perfectly straight.

4. for god's sake, make sure you have the correct toe-in for those sized tires...

 

the BFG A/T that were on it 1 hour before ran just fine with out the traction control turing on or anything. as soon as the new tires and rims were on i went down the road and went around a turn and the traction control light came on and it started making ABS like noises. as soon as i get out of the turn it all stops and goes back to normal

 

Welcome to a lifted JK?

As noted above, verify the psi and balance and alignment specs and centering. (just because the steering wheel 'looks' centered, does not mean that it is!! The computer may think that the steering wheel being offset 15 or 20 degrees is centered, which means bent components...)

If you can't figure it out, just do the steering wheel dance and turn it off.

 

the psi and balance and alignment specs and centering is all good. i have been running 37 for a couple months now and never had one problem... until now

 

Wider tires? MT vs AT tread? The old ones were worn down?


Just turn it off and be done with it.

 

yea they a good bit wider and they are MT. the AT werent worn out at all they had like 2k miles on em

 

I upgraded to 34"s a few weeks ago and mine started doing this too. I'm going to check my steering wheel to make sure it's straight. I've been reading in other threads where some have made an on/off switch, did the steering wheel dance or have pulled the plug. Not sure which route I'm going yet but it's annoying.

 

nope the steering wheel don't do anything but yea, its not a big deal its just really annoying.
