Default Lacing up a 18x5.5 Drag Specialties rear rim

I've dug through tons of post and noticed a couple of things that might help others. According to these to post, you can use the Drag Specialties 18x5.5 rim and lace it with your stock hub. Both post reference using Buchanan spokes but no post that I saw mentioned the use of the original spokes. Can you use the stock spokes like on the Jireh front swap? I plan to lace a front Jireh when they're in stock and it would be nice to have the spokes match. Either fresh and pretty or old and stained. At least they'd be consistent.

Here's the post with the Drag part number of 0210-0025 but Drag's site shows that part number for a 19x2.15. I'm thinking the part number should be 0210-0024 which is a 18x5.5 40 spoke. Should I assume they posted the correct model spokes? I feel kinda bad for the first guy cause he's pretty pumped about the setup and no one responded... I could be in the same boat as that guy.

Any stock spoke users out there for the back?
