Please bear with me, I've been busy and haven't had time to paint the whole picture yet

Sounds like you may get 18x8 wheels. I have 18x8 and 18x9. +45 and +42. No spacers.
You won't need spacers for 9" wide wheels. Period. (Stance excluded)
8" wide offset range that fits is +35 to +53. (17x8 +53 stock wrx wheel) A +35 8" wide wheel is flush, especially in the front. I would have chosen +40 instead of +45 if it was offered.
Don't forget tires. I run 245/35/18 MPSS. Which are stock outside diameter.
I don't think you are going to need spacers...
Look at the wheel directory. Find similar setups and read. I've read the whole thing.
Good luck!
