Pegasus aluminum sleeves question

I'm looking at ordering some pegasus wheels and aluminum sleeves to be used together. I have one question though, when ordering pegasus' wheels to be slipped inside of their sleeves, do I order the regular sleeves or the "stepped" sleeves? I kind of assume that the stepped sleeves are designed so that any wheel diameter could be adapted to it where the regular sleeves are designed to fit their wheels. I just want to make sure before I order. If anyone can offer any advice, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

I saw that, but pegasus offers 2 different versions. His tutorial got me interested, but I'm just trying to figure out which route I need to go.

both will work, get one of each and decide which you like best

Are the dimensions posted anywhere?

...There's a good reason I don't make fun of the questions of others...
The deminsions are in the tuit.
The stepped rims have a step on the outside edge and appear to be the same otherwise.

Damn, need some of those but they won't do foreign orders, and I'm in the UK.
