The problem is that WIX automatically redirects all to www-domain. It is not possible to have non-www domain when using WIX.
Now, I would like my website to be distributed as non-www, but I don't know how this affects SEO if people will click on non-www links, or the will type the non-www url.
Is it ok to set in Webmaster Tools a non-www version while WIX will always redirect to www ?

Or I should make everything as www (i'd rather not, but if it's in my best interest, I will do that) ?

A tiny weeny amount of dissipation occurs when a page redirects from one to another, this is because 301 redirects are treated as they are links, and more so if a website redirects outbound to another, this is near identical. The leak obviously becomes bigger than more links you gain.
Also.... Wix not supporting non-www since when?... paying customers are allowed to use their own domain and have the option to set the IP host record in the DNS management, I see no reason why non-www wouldn't be supported nor can I find any documentation that says non-www is not supported...
It is not possible to have a non-www domain with wix. Any attempt to reach your site without "www" will result in your visitor ending up on a www-domain name.
If WIX redirects to www then setting the preferred domain in GWT is likely to have no effect. If the site always redirects to www then you have no choice but to use the www subdomain. The bare domain will never appear in the SERPs.
