Default Looking for tires for 18x8.5 BBS CH's what size to get?

I see Tire Rack recommends 225/40/18 but wont that be too narrow for an 8.5" wheel?

I was think 235/40/18 but wouldn't mind 225/40/18 if it would fit with no problems.

This is going on a 2001 A4 and I do have H&R Coilovers but its not real low. Whats recommended?
