Default Traction Assist kicking in with new gears/lift/tires

I have 35" tires, with a 6" lift and 4.56 gears....before I had tuning done, my brake light and ABS light would light up after starting the car and taking off, as well as my traction control light coming on and putting the car in a "limp mode".

I had tuning done to account for the tires and gear ratios, which cured the brake and ABS light, but the traction control still comes on after initial takeoff and keeps the car running weird until I press the button to disable it....anyone else have this problem and how can it be fixed?

check the readings for front and rear speed sensors and see if they are the same, tire size programed may be off slightly so the difference in readings is close enough not to set off abs code but just enough that traction controll thinks tires are slipping.

your 35's may be 34.8 tall
