Does anyone know what size cone spanner(s) I'd need to service the bearings on a R500 rear wheel?

I haven't got calipers but it looks like 15mm on the non-casette side. Is that right and do I need any other size for the other side?

This looks great when you first see it but not sure it helps:

Many thanks for any help offered.

    Just take care when you're dismantling it, note how many threads are exposed each side before you undo the cones, lay out the components in order as you take them off and note which way they were facing.
