A control system (300) for controlling an active suspension system (104) of a vehicle (100) to determine relative traction levels, the control system comprising one or more controller (301), wherein the control system is configured to (908): control the active suspension system to change normal force through a first subset of one or more wheels; determine a traction-dependent variable at each of the first subset of wheels to which known torque is applied; control the active suspension system to change normal force through a second subset of one or more wheels; and determine a traction-dependent variable at each of the second subset of wheels to which known torque is applied, wherein the traction-dependent variables indicate relative traction levels.
