new wheels

looking at getting these wheels. Wondering if I should go for the 7 wide or the 8 wide. I would think the wider ones would be benificial for a bit wider tire and better tractions. But i don't know if the fit will be ok. I think i stick with the 7's but does anyone think that the 8;s would be better???
