I'm going to attempt a basic revival service (stick some grease in there) on some deore hubs on my work bike. I can't really justify buying new wheels at the moment so want to get them running a bit nicer. They're about 7 years old, and will be dry as a bone as they have never been serviced. They need truing as well so will give this a go and if i kill them i'll have to get new ones but want to try reviving them first.

So:

What size cone spanners do I need to buy? and what size/sort of bearings do i need assuming i need to replace them.

Rear needs a 15mm & 17mm, and 9 x 1/4" bearings per side. Front needs 10 or 11 x 3/16" bearings depending on model(check on shimanotechdocs if unsure), not sure if it's a 13mm or 15mm spanner though.
