So at stock height, that would mean the fronts would be sticking out by 3 mm?

You also mention that we would need to adjust the offsets when lowering the car.
Front - lowered 36mm (1.417 inch)
Rear - lowered 32mm (1.259 inch)

so conservatively I would need to be over +37 for the front and +38 for the rear?

Thanks for any help!
