Not talking from experience but from what i've read, an offset of around ET20 on the front should be ok and still sit in the arch. after that you start getting poke...if thats what your after!

Im not sure if a higher offset will cause bumping on the inside of the arch, but i can't see it with ET38.

The rear can handle a lower offset (i.e stick out further) and still sit in the arch

Whit a 7inch wide you need an offset of 28!
