RAS & Lowering

My search is coming up empty, but there have to be some threads on the issue.

Rear Active Steering and Lowering. The only comments I have read have been rather vague..."it may complicate it"..."can't lower with RAS, etc."

Would someone mind giving me the skinny? My stock look suits me, but soon moving into volks with a 245/275 setup and the gap will likely trouble me.

Thanks in advance for any help!

If you aren't worried about running different offset and width rims with your RAS, I wouldn't worry too much about lowering it. Just make sure to get it back in to alignment spec. The issue is that the some of the aftermarket toe correction hardware is uncomfirmed to work with the new RAS hardware in the back (your toe arms now tie to a steering rack instead of to the body).

Thanks for the response Mechee

Should I be worried about running different offset & width with the RAS?

Moving into a set of Challenges 8.5/9.5 245/35 & 275/35. I don't wish to slam the car...but enough where the gap isn't glaring.
