Lowering the car confuses the VDC (maybe only somewhat). True or false?

As long as it is the suspension lowering the car, I highly doubt it would affect the TC/VDC.

However, if you change to different size tires (overall diameter/circumference) then I wouldn't be surprised if things get a little hokey. Although, I'm almost at the minimum tread depth on my right front tire, and while I did have my SLIP indicator light up and stay on a couple days ago, whithout ever spinning, it hasn't happened since. I'm sure the diameters of my tires are quite a bit different now than before, so I must just be approaching the threshold of VDC activation.

Potato- I'm lowered about 0.5" in front, 1.5" in rear and haven;t noticed any difference in how/when the VDC is applied.
