Default hard time finding tires 10.5"/9.5"

Let me start off by saying I am a wheel newb. I have been reading and people say to get 9.5/10.5 or 10.5 all around.

I am looking at getting 19x10.5 or 18x10.5, 9.5 front +15 offset wheels. I am having a really hard time finding tires to fit them (matching tires). From what I am reading I want at least a 285 tire on the rear, 255 or 265 up front ( I hate the stretched look ). I was thinking 40 series for 18", 35 for 19".

My price range is ~$900 (is this too low?) and I am looking for a summer tire. Can anyone help me out? Am I better off going with 8.5"/9.5" at this price range?

Are you looking for wheels or tires? Is the budget for both?

Many tires will fit your $900 budget. Go to tirerack and read reviews, etc...
