Wheel/Tire questions, dilemma.....

Ok, Ive got a 2003 Sedan Obsidian Black. (oem 17's)

I was given these 19's on trade for a rifle...

From what I can tell they are Motegi DPK's


However, I dont know the width (Im assuming 8") and I dont know the offset
Here are the markings on the back side of rim





Any idea?

They are chrome, and Ive never been a huge fan of chrome.. and Ive got a cheap source for powdercoating... So I was thinking about going for a look like this...





Thoughts? Or should I just leave it chrome and be done with it...

Now on to tires. They need a new set of tires on em. Right now Im at stock ride height, and MIGHT lower it later...

What sizes should I be looking at? I heard the sedan cant run what the coupe can as far as width?

Thank you in advance!

You'll be fine with those specs.

19x8 +40

I definitely hate the chrome as well.
