Ticking time bomb?



Cracks around almost every spoke hole and valve stem.
How much life is left in this rim, i have to source a new one obviously but can i keep riding this? What will the failure mode be? Spoke pull through or catastrophic failure? Would like to upgrade from nexus 7c18 coaster to a 8 speed nexus coaster only thing is the spacing is 127 on the frame, is there an 8 speed hub with 127mm spacing or can an wider hub be respaced?
