Are the effects of a low offset wheel weakening wheel bearings or knuckles something to take into consideration with this car? Apologies for the semi-vague question, but I hope someone understands what I'm getting at.

More than scrub radius, I'm more concerned about the aero penalty at high speeds. The car is extremely aerodynamic from the factory, so we're worried about hurting that slipperyness/stability at speed.
We have a few different wheel setups, so we'll keep you posted as we get more development done.
Long term reliability effects are... unknown as of yet. We'll need years of data before we have anything conclusive to say there.

I am looking at going to a 235 or 245 as well next, but unsure if its worth the weight penalty vs potential extra entry/exit speeds

That's quite an old post you quoted... see this thread:
