Off Season Wheel/Tire Questions (18" vs 19", squared, etc)

I am looking into a second set of wheels and tires for the off season. I'm not going for hardcore winter tires, just all seasons. I am also not looking to break the bank on wheels.

I've been going through threads here but can't find clear answers. I am a noob when it comes to buying wheels and only have done it once on a previous car just using tire racks search feature. This is what I am trying to find out:

1. Am I able to run a complete squared set up, wheel and tire, that will allow me to rotate when needed?

2. What are the measurements for an 18" squared set up, wheel and tire? Tire Rack doesn't give you the option to manually search and only gives known fitments so I can't see anything in 18".

3. If I were to get 19"s, would I be able to just pick up 4 19x9 wheels running a squared set up that would work without any fitment/awkward looking issues?

Select an OG M2 and use the winter wheel package configurator on TireRack. Make sure you choose 18’s and then just select a tire. It will take you to the wheels where you can see what’s compatible. Hope that helps…

I bought my 18’’ Sparco Podio wheels using that.
