SL/R230: ESP after Lowering SL55

ESP after Lowering SL55
Hoping someone can chime in on this. I spent a good amount of time searching for a thread where someone else had this issue, but no luck.
I recently lowered the car (not terribly aggressive), and installed after market wheels with a 305 rear tire. I now notice traction is diminished on take off. ESP easily comes on and car wants to step out. I had a 4 wheel alignment done (still waiting for the spec sheet to be sent to me) which improved things a bit, but certainly not as good as stock. Is this a camber issue, or something else?
Thanks for the feedback.

Lowering won't set off traction control.
Tire diameter with a large difference between front and rear will.
I have an aggressive drop with 20" rims and I drive and run like OEM

You have too many variables going at the same time. Start with changing tires back to whatever you had. Then you know if it's suspension or just bad tires and take it from there.
Good luck
