I'm building up a 2015 Focus Mares CX w/ Di2 and don't know if it need the 6mm circle ones, or the 7x8mm, anyone have any idea?

I got oval ones and my frame had circle holes...surprise! They fit fine anyways. So, given that I'd say get the oval as they work with either shape hole.

The grommet ID is what matters. The larger ID is for 7970, the smaller one is for E-Tube.

Thank you, that makes sense but is new info to me.

Gonna reiterate it here in case anybody searches on it in the future.

for e-tube you need 6mm grommets.

IF the frame is also made for EPS, they use a 7mm 'hole' and grommet, so I suspect a 7mm one.

Just to add clarity to the mud, there are Shimano grommets and frame vendor grommets. They may not be the same. If your frame vendor offers a grommet kit, I suggest that you use those.
