DSC light on often recently even new tire put on my RWD 335

Recently the DSC light on often recently even new tire put on my RWD 335. I didn't floor it, the DSC just on when I gas on moderately or getting into an ramp. It is because the new tire need to break in or is it a defective tire? I dun recall it happened before when I put new tire on.

Possibly too soft tires. What did you install?

I just read that some people feel they are too soft. Could be your problem.

Winter tires are going to have less grip in the dry/wet at temps above about 40*F/5*C.

Just found out the tire shop put 40 psi on all 4 corner! So I let go some air and make it 32/38 and now the DSC coming on that often but still come on more than I like. So what is the recommend tire pressure on RWD 335i that running square 225/40/18 for snowtire?
