Stan's Grail from Performance Bikes

Searched, but unfortunately 'grail' comes up in a lot of threads...
After the third busted spoke on my Bontragers, I'm looking at the Stan's Grail MK3 wheelset to replace my current wheels on my Boone. As Performance is going out of business my local outlet has a set of their version of the Grail MK3 at a great price, but it's got different hubs and a different spoke count than the Grail MK3 on Stan's website 32 spokes vs the 28 on Stans' site). While I actually like the higher spoke count, I'm concerned that the hubs are low quality.

Has anyone purchased the Performance version of these wheels? Any feedback on the hubs? They are non-branded.

Additionally, the Stans rear wheel is a 12x142 thru axle, while my bike has a rear QR skewer. I see some adapters on the Stans site; am I correct that these adapters can be used on these wheels? Anyone with experience doing this?
