Hi

Before I order some new wheels I just want to check the different options that are available on the superstar site. Now my forks are Fox with 15QR, so the front wheel option of 15mm is pretty straight forward. Now their rear wheel options include; 142mm/12mm, 12mm through thru axle adaptor, 10mm thru axle and QR adapter. Can anyone explain the differences and which one is preferable? I don't want to mess the order up.

Thanks

    width and diameter.

    would be easier to tell you what you need if we knew the make model and year of your bike.
