On all 3 of my customized cars my traction control system does not work properly either. I belive it should be because if tire hight also. I think they look great buti dont use my traction control anyways..

You obviously know what effects that setup has on TC, yet you fail to inform the customer that this will most likely cause issues with the TC system. Just because you are willing to "sacrifice" the operation of TC doesn't mean everyone will. If you fail to inform customers that going with a certain wheel/tire setup may cause TC system issues, then YOU are at fault for selling them and have customers come back with complaints on the effects.

If i want to have a fast car, i have to sacrifice the car being in the shop all the time or broken down because i have boost leak. But in the end this is my true passion.
anyhow, as you know we are here to help so please call us on monday so at least we can try our best to help you out.

Hope you all have a great weekend.

Thanks,

This has got to be one of the stupidest recommendations I've ever heard of in my life, why not recommend stripping out the seat belts and removing the door to elimate unnecessary weight because they may only simply hold you in the car in an accident. Good thinking
