Hello Ladies & Gentlemen,

I'm currently running in the front Bridgestone S-04 tires (from 2013) w/ 66% tread remaining. The rears were done, so I replaced them with the exact same model/size tire (manufactured in 2016). I've notice the VSA is super sensitive now & kicks in well below the tires' limit.

Is there something I can do so the VSA is not so sensitive? Will resetting ECU work?
Or is this something that happens with tire break-in (if such a thing even exists).

Thank you in advance,

Most tires need a couple hundred miles just to wear off the mold release compound and break in. Give them a good 500 miles before you start getting worried. VSA is only responding to slick new tires.

Turn off VSA if you want to break them in quicker.

I replace one 1 rear tire due to sidewall damage. My VSA is going crazy. VSA kick in way too early when I took the same turn at my regular speed.

due to difference in rolling diameter between new and older tire from wear.

Thanks mate

Any change to tire diameter (including new tires at one end or corner) will throw off VSA's calculations and make it kick in earlier. Same for changing alignment or track widths.
