Myth. You can never have perfect suspension geometry. It is always a compromise, even on super cars.

um, okay.... not sure what your point is. sorry.

anyway, as for the other part of the op's question--how bumpsteer is affected by ride height, it appears from the data presented previously and by my own measurements that at least on the ap1 rear suspension, change in toe is somewhat linear with the vertical position of the suspension. so, that seems to imply it's not really as much about how high your car is, but just where that toe arm is connected. i dunno, maybe should look at the stats more, and maybe graph the change.
