Default Traction control activates in slow turn

I just put some 35s on my truck about a month ago an now I can take a slow turn and my traction control will start kicking in for no reason. Anyone else experience this?

It's common when you add larger rubber or a level/ lift. There's a flash for it- can't remember the TSB though. Do a quick google- you'll find it.
