You have provided tyre dimensions. Call them up and ask how wide the rim is.

You need to ask rim width and offset as well as the spigot diameter (the diameter of the centre hole) which cannot be smaller than what fits the magnas.
Eitherway, offset tyre widths don't really work on a front wheel drive car.

That would not be correct. 18cm is just a tad over 7" and not way would a tyre that is 235mm, let alone a 245mm tyre fit onto a wheel that narrow.
