Default Anyone had this problem?

ok i got a 98' T/A it was a A4 and i swapped it to a M6, and i just got it on the road about 2 weeks ago i got the brake in miles on it so i go to the track to make some n/a passes yesterday and i put my et streets on the back and the cars traction control starts kicking in and want let me do a burnout or launch or anything. i put the street tires on and it will let u power brake the **** out of it. so is the 26 by 11.50 on a 16 doin something to trip the traction control because they are taller than the stockers which are 275 40series on a 17. i just need to know what yall done to fix the problem basically i want the damn traction control off all the time its useless to me for what i'm doing with the car. and thanks in advance guys

You have to turn T C off before you do a burnout. Its designed to not let you spin.

Unplug the sensors on the backing plates and just leave them unpluged. That should disable the TC/ABS.

No, I was saying you can unplug the sensors that are on the brake backing plates. That way all you have to do is reach behind the tire and unplug them.
