D.I.D. Dirt star LT-X and ST-X same?

Just wondering if these two models of rims are exactly the same as far as the holes for the spokes and nipples before I go buy a replacement and find out they are different. Thanks!

Outside of the unique spacing for CRF models, yes a LT-X has the same hole spacing and nipple size as a ST-X. Strength and weight is the main difference, ST-X is stronger, stiffer and heavier...LT-X flexes more, has a little less strength but is lighter. Some teams stick to the LT-X because of the weight and feel the rim offers, ST-X is stiffer. Example, HRC runs LT-X in Supercross and ST-X in outdoors.

Seems like an honest question to me. Believe it or not, but some people come to this site for technical information and help and not just to get into arguments.
