Standard size should fit fine.

If there are any doubts, measure. Here are the precise measurements of a Trembucker vs a regular humbucker.

Re: Nazgul in PRS Custom 24
The problem with PRS' string spacing is that in the bridge position a normal size humbucker is a little too small and a trembucker is slightly too big. The strings will not exactly match the pole pieces, but in reality that won't cause any problems.
I have a Custom trembucker in the bridge position and a normal size 59 humbucker in the neck position.

If you are going to replace a bridge pickup on a tremolo equipped guitar it's usually better to get a trembucker model (that's a standard practice). Because it is not necessary for the strings to pass exactly over the center of the polepieces, but it is wise to avoid E strings outside of the outer polepieces. And that is applicable to hardtail bridge guitars as well. For example for post 1998 Les Paul a trembucker is recommended.
