I'm largely in the same boat. I like the Mazda Motorsports wheels because a) they were made for the car, b) they are Rays and all that means, and c) I want to support the Motorsports program. I like the Sakebomb 18" RZ+ because I prefer the mesh design.

Is the price shown on HRE's website the price you pay? Fikse and Forgeline used to offer better pricing through dealers so I wonder if HRE does something similar.

If you buy direct from HRE that is the price you will pay. Some vendors will give a slight discount but it’s not much. I’ve used Peter Kop in the past for HRE’s and he seems to have the best pricing.

If I want to go 18 x 8.5 in the front, what would an ideal offset and tire size be where I wouldn't have to worry about max negative camber, rolling fenders, or scrubbing a fender liner ?

I was thinking somewhere in the +42 to +45 range on a 235/40 ? +48 to +50 seems too sunken in IMO.

Look for some posts from @GoodfellaFD3S He had various sizing recommendations for 8.5 wide front wheels.
