1. A method for influencing a stiffness behavior of a vehicle assembly of a vehicle, comprising:
changing a wheel steering angle of at least one vehicle wheel of the vehicle using at least one wheel steering angle controller of a steering system of the vehicle;
reducing a stiffness of the vehicle assembly by configuring and/or adapting a chassis characteristic of the vehicle; and
actuating the at least one wheel steering angle controller in at least one driving mode state to selectively influence the stiffness behavior of the vehicle assembly, such that a change in the stiffness of the vehicle assembly caused by the configuration and/or adaptation of the chassis characteristic is compensated as a function of a driving situation.
