What can I fit at stock ride height
I'm very new to wheels and tire fitment, but i've done some reading and it seems people really like non staggered setups
will 17x9+45 rpf1 fit with 255 all around?
im just looking for a clean set up with rpf1 , pf01, or te37
something that is plug and play no rolling or pulling and is a nice upgrade from stock ap2

Not everyone likes non staggard set ups so dont let what might seem popular on the outside the basis for your decision. The thing that may dictate your decision is a functional one, and functionally your not going to get a 255 up front to fit on any rim without rolling your fenders, or you risk damaging them, even at stock ride height. The rear is no problem with the right offset and width wheel, but the rpf1 9 +45 is not it. You can run as aggressive as a 9 +50ish in the rear with a 255 without rolling fenders, but not up front. You can do a 9 +60 with a 245 however.

Not sure where you're getting this impression: Very few folks like the non-staggered tire setup and even few of them fit 255 tires on all four corners. Fat tires on the front acerbate the oversteer in these cars, something Honda worked for years to cure. There's a functional reason the fronts are small than the rears.
Few aftermarket wheels fit either without rolling and cutting the fenders. It's the offsets. My car had narrower than stock RPF1 wheels on it when I bought it. Didn't do a thing for car but they fit. 17x7J45 front and17x8J45 rear. These fit, but that's about it.
A good set of tires on your OEM AP2 wheels will handle very well. Better than I can drive.

It depends on you meaning of fit. At the stock height you may not rub but the wheels will stick out more and look odd on the car. I would also suggest the PF01 or the TSW options that come in 17x9 +63 as they will look more correct on the car at stock ride height.

so, what would you guys recommend for a wheel with wider tires that's plug and play
ive read a lot of people do 225/255
am just looking for something a little more aggressive.

These wheels come in challenging offsets for not rolling fenders, but with the right combination of things ive seen them pulled off without rubbing. The best looking fitment option for you with this wheel is the 8 +45 up front with a 215/45 and the 9 +45 rear with 245/40. No more then -1" drop and you want to dial in a decent amount of camber in the -2.5 range front and rear. You can go a tad less up front, but more the better to tuck when you turn the wheels. You dont want to grab the fender liner and yank your fender lip which is non fixable. You need to start getting comfortable about hitting driveways entrances off camber with wheels strait and car diagonal, especially with added passenger weight.
