Building up my first road bike and picked up some bargain 105 5500 9spd sti units BUT I need some new grips/hoods and can't seem to find any listed as 5500 as I understand it they share the same fitment as the 5510/6500/6510. Are there any other models they share fitment with?

Shimano tech docs should tell you compatability.

Would the 4500 Tiagra ones fit ??? They look alot more like the 5500
ones than the 5600 versions ...
