No, rims are very tough. It takes a very hard hit to crack a rim. Installing a wheel weight will not cause a crack.
I have a v6 Lx version 2008 Sportage with Aluminum rims and the tire is 215/65R16.
Rim and tire prices tend to vary depending on the quality of the rims and the milage rating on the tires. Tire prices are set by the rim size, height and width of the tire. Rims are priced according to the material they rims are made of and the complexity of the rim design. Aluminum Alloy rims are more expensive than steel rims. You need to contact your local car parts store to determine the size and price that is right for you.
Your tire is losing air because one or all of the following, - A foreign object punctured your tire - Your valve stem is leaking - There is corrosion in between the bead of your tire and the rim - Your rim is cracked ( very uncommon but possible )
Rims are wheels. Your tire goes on them.
Rims and mags are often used interchangeably, but there's a distinction. "Rims" refer to the outer edge of a wheel that holds the tire, while "mags" typically refer to magnesium or aluminum alloy wheels, which are lighter and more aesthetically appealing than traditional steel rims. Thus, while all mags are rims, not all rims are mags.
older car rims are made out of steel where as new cars come out of factory with alloy wheels.

As long as the tire is made for 18 inch rims, it would mount like any other tire.As long as the tire is made for 18 inch rims, it would mount like any other tire.
If you want to replace the current tires on your vehicle with a 17 inch tire you will have to have the proper rims for that tire. If you currently have rims for a 17 inch tire then you would not have to replace them but if your tire rims are smaller or larger then they would have to be replaced.
If you do not have a tire your rims will be damaged and the some with what the wheel. The weight of the car is so heavy it would crush the wheel and the rims.
Nothing will happen if you change the tire size along with the rims so you end up with a wheel/tire combination that is close to the overall diameter of the OEM tire/wheel that came on the car. Any tire shop can help you choose the correct size tire for the 15" rims.
