Default Leveling cause TC problems for everyone?

Been reading several threads about leveling kits and/or larger tires causing problems with the traction control. Is everyone having this problem or is it hit and miss.

Maybe guys could post what level kit they have along with tire size and advise if they have TC problems since install. I want to level and put on a more aggressive tire which would be no larger than 33in but might reconsider if I will have TC problems.

Will be interesting to see who is and isn't having problems.

And also post if you lifted and didn't have any problems too please.
Does the rancho/bilstiens have the same effect?
Interested in this also.

This is a really good post and smart question. My truck has 1.5" AS leveling kit on with 20x9 wheels and 305/55/20 tires and I have not had one TPS problem and no rubbing issues. If you look in my gallery you can see my setup. Good luck with your decision

I have 10,000 miles so far on a 6" procomp with 35" toyos and have not had any issues with the traction control, I have however had the tpms fault light on for the past 3000 miles. It seems when I last had my tires rotated they went out even after I reset the system, oh well. I've had the tcs kick in when I take my truck to the beach or in some mud but a simple poke of the button and it's all taken cae of. Hope this helps.
