Default Dynamic rear steering and tire fitment

I don't want to be "that guy" that's asking about tire fitment, but I can't find anything on if having the dynamic handling system effects what will fit in the rear on my 2014. I'm looking at a 20x10 +40 and running a 275-35 tire. I figure with the wheel being an inch wider than factory yet a half inch less offset, it should pretty much balance out. But any word from previous owners that have ran similar?

Also, not lowered but may end up going with tanabes if the car looks off with the new setup.

Don't quote me on this as I have no idea what I'm talking about when it comes to putting on wider tires in the rear of ours cars but rear steering on the GS is only about ~2 degrees or so in either direction, which looks like this:



But if it's that tight with 275s back there, it may present an issue.

Great question.

I have rear steer, but imagine the variable is the wheel offset/size vs the 275 width.

I have 275 gsf rims on mine and they fit fine. Although they may stick out past the wheel wells just barely
