Rear active steer question

Ok...lets just say I put the big rims on this suckka and it's dropped slightly not slammed, how does rear active steer effect the car on turns (wheel rubbing wise) inside the fender well?

The RAS kicks in only at speeds avove 30mph and only when initiating an avoidance maneuver/quick turn.
It does this via a link and an electric motor to change the deflection of the wheel.

Here's a quick description from the O/Manual:

Ok but just say you do a quick maneuver and you do have wide rims, it will rub right?

When the RAS kicks in, it deflects the wheel angle only by 1 degree.....So if you've got any kind of clearance anyway.... I doubt that one degree is going to cause any problem.
JMHO.
