With those spokes- 15/16 right rear 15/17 front and left rear.
Due to dish, you want the left rear spokes to be lighter than right rear. This is so they can be stretched enough not to go slack when they are the bottom spoke, without requiring excess tension on the drive side spokes.
My preference would be 14/15 right rear 14/17 front and left rear.
