It doesn't really matter. The big advantage of an 8" wide wheel is that it can have a wider tire on it, but our cars can't take advantage of that. You'll have slightly more rim protection with a narrower wheel since the tire will stick out further, but a wider wheel will flatten out the tire a tiny bit more and give you a little more rubber on the road. I'd pick the wheel based on what you think looks better, not the rim width.
