Offset of of 38 is going to look weird, assuming it even clears the brakes.
After an ultra fast lol-google, according to Wheeldude, the Grids at +38 wouldn't fit the X:
Now, these ain't Grids, but the same answer might apply.

The 18x9.5 +38 model will not fit the Evo X. The Rota Grid has a ton of concave and will require a lower offset to clear the front Brembo calipers. We make this model in 18x9.5 +20 fitment specifically for the Evo X
Now, these ain't Grids, but the same answer might apply.

Did you get a killer deal on the +38's or what? You'll certainly improve your odds by going with a 245 tire but why buy wider wheels to run stock tire size? Among those options I would have done +22.
If you use a 10mm spacer then you could run 265's and you come out pretty much flush with the wheel well (I have +28).
