First datsun owner

Just bought my first 1979 180B Datsun
I'm pretty sure its an 810 (correct me if I'm wrong)

Anyone know the history? Its a 5 speed which I was surprised, I though they came in 4 speed.

Would like to know what size wheels will fit it terms of width and size? Looking into minilites but not sure what size/width/offset will fit.
Any help will be appreciated.

Attached is a couple of pics:

Hi!
Thanks for that info. Drives great being a 5 speed it cruises nicely on the highway.
