Bladed/aero spokes (on the disc side at least) could gain you about half a milimeter more.
DT swiss aero comp or sapim cx-sprint would be the same stiffness as sapim race.
It is because the hub's left flange position is 1mm wider than spec / most others.
You could also respace the hub 1mm if you can find endcaps for it / make something

Spent the day in the bike kitchen and, with the expert help of the mechanics there, it now fits (just about.)
Started off using some small washers on packing tape to imitate a rotor shim. 1mm pushed the rotor into the fork, 0.5mm was OK, but there was still some spoke chaffing.
Then tightened the spokes on the rotor side of the wheel, which 'dished' it a little.
Backed the TRP Spyre pistons all the way off and then tightened the non-wheel side piston so that the calliper now sits off-centre.
When I change my brake pads next, I might need to file off some of the pad on the wheel side. For the moment though, the dynamo lights work!
Next on the list is to find a neat way of running the cable up the fork, and then to the rear light. Thinking electric tape to stick it to the fork, then heat shrink tubing to route the cable alongside the rear brake cable. I've read you can drill a small hole in a Tubus rack, which would make for a neat routing. I also need to find a big washer for the front light, and a long M5 bolt.
