What's the width from outside edge to outside edge?
I can see the rim stamped with 40, which clearly means 40 spoke version, you sure there's nothing else stamped on the rim, most likely it the same sort of place.
They look like an 18 and a 19 to me. Most likely 1.85 rim size.
Finally got back in the garage after a week or so off.
Did your collets, just tidying em up ready to be done, need to be polished next.
Before.
After.
Oddjob:
Just thought. What's the problem with the spokes, looking at those rims the standards spokes will be too long.
Laverdaroo:
The standard spokes are too long, that’s what raised an eyebrow to start with.
There’s deffo nothing else on em I’ll measure again tonight when I get in.

I'd be very tempted to paint those rim interior areas to prevent further corrosion. There appears to be some occlusion in corrosion areas too. Worthwhile carefully inspecting after building for any disturbance around the spoke Wells to make sure non have been affected and will subsequently hold good tension.
Prime with etch, then something like gloss grey to give neutral finish.
