TSC/DSC light on after change wheel to 19" + lowered 1inch

i got the car lowered 1inch and replace the wheel with 19"x8" set.

Now the guy who did the wheel alignment did a crap of a job, i m driving with the steering turn to the left just to get the car drive straight.

the problem is when i started the car and driving slow (<40km/h), the DSC light is off . Once i reach speed > 40km/h the DSC will go on(constant light) . The light keep stay on throughout the drive. Only when i turn off the car.

Ouch...once you solve the DSC light issue. Take your car to NTB or Discount Tire Co. and have them realign it. Sounds like your guy did a totally **** job!!

probably not your problem, but differences in rolling diameter front/rear greater then 2% will trip the DSC light

I do not condone violence, but you need to do something about the people who fudged your alignment. Please tell me you went back and showed them, and tell me you raised hell. I never settle down for poor workmanship anymore. Give me the tools and let me do it. I may take longer, but it will be right. It disgusts me.... truly.
