Default Wider wheels with 4 wheel steering? Any problems?

Hi Guys, first post on this forum. Having come from AMG and BMW M cars about to order the 24 LC500 with Enhancement option. Can anyone say if you can increase the wheel width without affecting the 4 wheel steering?
What's the favoured wheel specs for the LC500 amongst members
Thanks in advance

Dependent on the style of wheel but common fitment is 21x9.5/21x10.5.

Thanks Josh
Are these OK with the rear steering ? What offset is recommended?

I have a '21 with rear wheel steering with the stock wheels and 20mm spacers. Stock specs on the rear is 21" x 9.5" +25 offset. So mine is currently at +5 after the spacers. No issues with the 4WS at all. This brings the rear wheel right flush with the fender. So if you go with a 10.5 or 11" wide wheel you would increase the offset (in my example over +5) to account for the additional width.
