    Hey guys, ive been searching on here for awhile now looking for a thread about this so i didnt have to ask but couldnt find much, but anyways i have the 3" revtek spacer lift on my truck with the 285's not sure the width but they slightly rub against my uca's and everytime i take a turn going about 30 mph my traction control kicks in and makes that awful sound and sends me all over the place, has anyone experienced this? do i get wheel spacers or new uca's i really dont want new rims so just looking for another way around it, thanks for the help fella's!

    i havent heard of anyone having issues with the recalibration, must be a moron to get it wrong, someone on here even said they were able to reset it themselves
