Do both those wheel/tyre combo's have the same rolling radius? The enkeis look like they need more side wall than the Image's

Good luck, mate. But do you need a spare gasket to replace the one that will undoubtedly get ruined when you remove the valve body?

Not 100% sure, but best to check the manual first before you take it off, just in case.

You don't need a gasket if you're just taking off the inlet hose.

The new wheels suit the car better, I think the rubber size is the problem.
