The only drawback probably is accelerated wheel bearing wear if you use some really aggressive offset.
There's no formula to this but it'll wear out faster than if you had used OEM spec.

Another drawback is increased bump-steer from the change in scrub radius.

To be fair, changes within 1/2" or so don't tend to make a big enough difference to really affect large changes in the feel though.
