Depends on the rim and your spoking pattern. You need to know the rim ERD, athen find an online spoke calculator and put in the details. Hopefully the hub will be listed.

Most things are listed in the DT Swiss calculator on their website at www.dtswiss.com

made by who?

just go to a goob bike shop and leave the rims with them they will beable to measure the ERD and work out the spoke length order them and build the wheel.

is the bike a giant?

TBH it will be easier and maybe cheeper to buy new wheels.

yes giant stp 2

i have considered buying new wheels but I'm trying to see which would be the best value (and cheapest)

Do you have the kit and time to rebuild and true the wheels to as good a standard as a bike shop? You could save time and effort by going down the LBS route.
