As I'm not very sure how I can insert a new hub in my wheel (I will search the net about it), maybe I will buy a new set of wheels and a 8-speed cassette with a 8-speed compatible chain and I will be fine (Shimano CS-HG50-8R and CN-HG50 as I see, correct?)!
Yes.
I think most Shimano/SRAM type wheels are 8-9-10 compatible, so you should have lot's of wheel choices.
Make sure not to get Campagnolo ("Campy") wheels. They generally don't match up with Shimano drivetrain.
