292mm all around like RPM sed.
Front flanges are only 4.7mm wider (33.7mm) from centre than rear drive side (29mm) which means the spokes only need to be about 0.2% longer in length.
If you imagine looking at the wheel face-on and make a triangle with rim at the top, centreline of the hub at the bottom and the spoke hole on the bottom right, moving the spoke hole left or right a few mm makes no difference at all really to the length of the longest side of the triangle from spoke hole to rim.
The rim ERD and the flange diameter have a much bigger impact per mm of change.
