basically title. i’m not ever gonna crank my din higher than 11. I currently have them at 10. do pivot 15 and 18 have any differences between them beside color and din range? if not i’m gonna probably get pivot 15 for the gold color.

They’re the same apart from the springs inside them that dictate the DIN.

yup exact same except for the spring. 12s and 14s have the plastic toe piece, 15s and 18s have the metal toe. everything else identical

They're the same. I've turned pivot 12 heels into 15s by swapping springs. Toe piece springs are even easier to swap
