What are the specs of both your front and rear tires? I'm guessing it's over the 3% limit

Check your brake fluid level. If it's below the max mark, top it off.

Shouldn’t have problem with those tire size as that combo has been a popular choice since 2009 lol.

Do what Rusty said. That by far is the most common cause.

Thanks guys, brake fluid is still topped up.
I'll have it checked it out when getting the alignment sorted

check brake and tail lights , if they don't come on probably a burned out fuse. happened to me after trailer light adapter shorted out and caused the VDC land traction ight to stay on. Yes I have a hitch on the Z to haul track tires

Care to share details about the hitch? I might be interested in this in the future.
