wheel size confusion

Hey everyone.
I'm driving a 08 limited fwd and am having issues trying to find some replacement wheels.
The confusion I am getting is with compatibility on sizing.
It has 18's on it and found out I have a cracked rim due to Michigan's lovely roads. I figured I would try to find a factory replacement but everywhere I look a factory rim is more expensive than a custom. who knew huh?. I've found a few that I am looking at on multiple sites but the offset/hub/etc are confusing with different references. so far im getting the specs of: 18"x7 and 18x7.5,. 5 x 114.3mm (5 x 4.5") hub pattern, and +52mm (Stock) offset..
what is messing with me is finding the offset. most rims I find are 40mm 74 mm bore.
would these fit and just stick out a few millimetres? or would they rub on the wheel wells?
what vehicles share the same wheels? flex? murano? cx-7? (few vehicles with the same sizing and hub pattern but no info on offset/bore, etc..

I thought the bolt pattern for your model was 5 x108mm, with a 63.3 CB
