I'm trying to go as wide as possible without rubbing. It looks like 8.5 might work but I heard they rub on hard turns. I'm also staying square just because I hear it is overall better for the car.

You can fit 9.5 wide and 265 tires without camber, so long as you have coils. But if you want meaty, I would suggest 17x9 with +35 to +45 offset, 245 or 255/40/17 tires, and -2.5* front camber. My track wheels are 17x9 +38 with 255s, and I run -3.5* camber. See pic at bottom for fitment (although those are 17x9 +35).

For the exhaust, I'm not sure what would be a good fit with the headers and stay emission compliant. If I can't, I guess I'll have to swap during inspection days.

Not sure how your state does things, but in Texas, you can pass inspection so long as you have a tune. They only check OBD2, and so long as the computer says everything's fine, you pass.

One last thing I wanted to add. Is the 2015 Series Blue worth getting or would it be better to get a 2013 limited?

Any 2015 is preferable to a 2013, as they made slight valvetrain changes in late 2014. 2015+ motors are slightly more reliable. Whether the series.blue is worthwhile is purely subjective. I have one, but I lost my front lip and replaced the painted calipers, so I've given up some of the uniqueness. Also, the frameless rear view mirror tends to have issues with delamination.
