Is +38 offset up front too aggressive?

Fitment and aestetics are too different things to consider. I suppose you could run et34 up fron on 8.5 wheel with 235 tires. Depending on supsension settings it may not rub, I can't answer that however 44-46 up front seems to be the sweet spot aestetically and I know for a fact on a lowered car at -1.2 camber with track use there is no rubbing.

I agree with you. So let's say @ +45 offset, could I come close to the stock front camber settings of -40' ?
