Default OEM rims in a wider format?

My wife is hounding me to go back to the OEM rims, but I like the wider, more aggressive stance of my current rims.

Does the OEM manufacturer sell the same style rims in a wider stance (18x9.0, 18x9.5)? Or does anyone have recommendations of rims that look similar? I currently have Work Emotion XT-7s.

you can also do f-sport rims, they may be wider than your current oem wheels if you were using the 17's. The f-sport rims are 8.5 width i believe.

and then of course throw on a 15mm spacer on top of that.
