90% of Qr's will be the same.

you would know if you had the 10% other size.

Out of interest, why upgrade the skewers?

Ah, OK! Gotcha.

You can get just a single skewer in some cases. Front or rear?

Also, if you're not worried, many LBS will have a box of skewers you might be able to have a rummage in for a bargain, especially in cities where many customers will have replaced their stock skewers with Pitloks or the like.
