Exclamation Wheel these 18x8 fit.... :)

I need some help. A few months ago I was ran off the road and have bent rims. I am super low on funds. I just bought new tires on the 12th and they leak and one already has a knot. They are sending new free replacements but I have to get some rims for Norma, my 2010 xB RS7. Because of my money situation I had to go with a Walmart credit card. My new tires are 235/40 R18 95W. I have picked these rims that are
18x8 5x108/5x114.3 + 40mm.

https://www.walmart.com/ip/Touren-TR...-Rim/141157712

there is also a 18x8 5x112/5x120 +40mm
https://www.walmart.com/ip/Touren-TR...-Rim/129414128

The guy at Walmart suggested 18.75 but also says he doesn't really know. Will they work. I know NOTHING about wheels and tires.

Also where do I get an instillation kit? What is in it? Sorry IDK.

PLEASE HELP!

Thanks.

You will need to find out what type of wheel nuts these wheels take. The most common aftermarket wheel nut is the 60 degree conical below (see arrow point at conical seat)

Also, you will need to check the hub bore on these wheels as they are likely larger than the xB hub. You will need hub centric rings to take up that gap.

Thanks. I called Raben Tire and they said that they had what I would need. I hope they actually know what they are talking about. I will try to contact the distributor and see what they can tell me too.

Where is the best/cheapest place to get 20-12x1.5 Open Ended Spline Tuner Style Conical Lug Nuts 12mmx1.5? Is there a chance that the rims I have now use the same lugs? My lock has the number 552 on top of it.

Bought a nice black set of lugs and a set spacers for the back but they gave me the wrong size spacers. :[
Now I'm going to have to return them and do it my self.
