Square Setup 18"

Square Setup 18"
Looking around CL taking a look at the different sizes that can fit, so far I see. I'm very set on getting a square setup.
18x9 + 45
I don't see any tires on Tirerack that size, even for the PF01s.
How accurate is Tirerack in terms of Fitment? I know the front calipers are very close to the OEM Rims already. Just want to not have to worry about not be able to clear the front calipers.
All I see is 18x8.5 +45.
18x9.5 +45 (Although only for the rears)
Anyone here know any other wheels that would be very beneficial in weight savings and looks? Apart from PF01s
I saw a variety of O.Z Racings that I like, but none are over 8 in wide!
I prefer to be at 18x8.5 or 18x9.0 at least
Side Note: Yes! I made a vote, and exhaust won. I'm already planning on jumping on that, but I want to see what CL can help me out so I don't have to worry about it in the future!

I plan to do the same in the spring.. I may go with Toyo Proxes R888R, 275/35ZR18. Though, mine will be strictly for summer time/track day use.

When looking for tires at tirerack.com, keep in mind they typically don't show sizes that are out of stock. If you're set on a particular tire, check the manufacturer web site for all available sizes. Plus, they likely replenish stock based on seasonal demand, so the selection for some performance categories may be limited this time of year.

While I usually use tirerack to research tire specs, I also look on tiresize.com, which sometimes has brands/models tirerack doesn't. https://tiresize.com/tiresizes/275-35R18.htm

Since I'm very firm in getting a 18x9" rim to run a square setup (rims are expensive) (R275/35Z18).
I hope you can recommend me a cost-effective wheel (Around 200-350 range at least)
If I can't find any other, I may even just stick with PF01s
Most of these rims are amazing, but expensive and I might save up on some rim and throw it on the tire instead.

If you still want to go the cheap route, I came across Motegi Racing wheels while searching that may fit your goals/budget. I have no idea whether they are good or not, but they have several wheels in the sizes you want for under $200 each.

Daily them and X- Cross. PF01s price range isn't really considered cheaping out. I'm just looking for the best performance for the money.

You said you were looking for wheels in the $200 range. PF01s are not in that range, they are 4-500. PF01s are great for track use, but as mentioned previous, why not go with the 9.5"? They are only an extra $30 and that will result in better performance for the money.
