Hi Blondie88,
It is a very simple process and there is a ton of information available out there to help. I am actually English but live in Germany and hence can understand your situation. However, I can confirm that all major garages will be able to help you install new rims/tyres. I actually did this at Vergoelst just the other day and have previously used ATU as well - not sure if you have them in Austria.
I have bought 2 sets of rims from Ebay and been very happy with the price and quality of the purchases. I then bought the tyres from the the garages and got them to fit them. I will often do this for getting a Winter & Summer set for a new car.
What you need to be careful of making sure that you get rims that will fit. As an example here
www.wheel-size.com
you can find the Rim width and bolt pattern that you need - you can then use these in Ebay to filter the offers.
As with everything in life make sure to check 2 or 3 times that you have a valid configuration before buying. I would also advise trying to buy locally as you might want to check for curb rash or other damage.
Have fun
Dave
