There is a table on page 7 of this document which may give some guidelines.

Probably best to have them professionally done Phil, central wheels did mine, they had to do a different spoke pattern to accommodate the angle of the nipple holes, or so they said, I can't see anything different myself (see photo above) anyway they only charged there normal rate, when they rang me it sounded at first as though they wouldn't be able to use the rims, but I could hear one of them in the background say he could do it, anyway if your builder thinks there's a problem show him the photo of mine.

philward:
Thanks again Mark - I compared your pics to my std wheels (and your back wheel spoke sizes are 30mm smaller than std) and I can see that spoke angle is steeper. What size and make of tyres have you got on your bike?

They are Avon road runners Phil, I will check the sizes tomorrow.

philward:
Just looking at same and guessing at  90/90 and 120/90 will accommodate slightly wider rims
