You can fit trayer in wibox area well. Try something like this in your rc.lua:
awful.wibox({ position = "top", screen = s, bg = "#00181818", height =
20, width = 1280 })
run trayer like that:
trayer --SetDockType true --expand true --align right --edge top
--widthtype pixel --width 86 --height 20 --transparent true --alpha
255 --tint 0x181818
And you will get what you want (I think):

With light BG if you doubt:

Just reserve place for the worst scenario (maximum number of icons at
a time) and calculate right width for wibox. It will be a little
tricky if you have a multi-monitor configuration, but not very hard at
all.
