Drag Radials

What will it do to the active handling and traction control if you run 17" drag radials on the back while at the drag strip? I am assuming it will throw codes;but, will anything be damaged?

I doubt it would cause any damage that way. I have heard of them causing some wierd things with the AH/TC though, but nothing major. The biggest worry is braking something on the launch!

Same set-up here. No problems at the track. When running on the street however, above 75mph you do get the active handling message on the DIC. Needless to say i don't run this set-up on the street.
