my 17" welds pissed off my computer

I know the title may seem weird but its true. Yesterday i finally got around the mounting up my welds. All after getting my rear suspension done. Apon its main voyage my dash lite up like a "christmas tree" The BRAKE, ABS, and all the traction control lights lit up and stayed lit.. anyone who has ran these wheels have any tips or what have you done to remedy this issue?

That usually meant the wheels and tires are different sizes. If you have a 28" tall tire in the rear and a 27" tall tire in the front, it'll start freaking out.

It's because the fronts are 26" tall and the rear are 28" is causing the issue. Too much difference in tire height.

yes as the few above said the tires are too far off.. now after doing some looking around i believe if i switch the rears to a 315/35/17 from mickey thompson that should fix it. Id switch the fronts but since they are a 5.0 rim no many tire options. Anyone be able to confirm whether or not said tire will fit on my rim which is a 17x11 i think haha

JMI- what size turbos are you running? i too have a agp twin turbo kit an stage 4 fore fuel system..

what would you suggest i up it to? would the m&h 4.5/28/17 tire be the one to go with? On their website it suggests a 4.0 wheel where as the tires i have now suggest a 5.0 wheel. If they'll fit ill go that route
