Default Advise on change

So I have been running the same set up for quite some time now and I think it's time for a change. I'm on just kyb struts and tein lowering springs subtle but not low enough. My wheels are 18x7.5 front and 18x9.5 rear. The staggered thing is cool, however opinions on this would be awesome. Getting some Megan coilovers and running 18x8.5 all the way around with some 235/40/18's. what wheels would you guys consider? I love the volk rays but the car is matte black. Should I got to a wider wheel than 8.5? Any advise is appreciated!

18x8.5's will look good with the right offset and will look good with a 40 series profile tire. That will be a good set to DD on as well i.e. tire rotation
