Default Fikse Wheels and Redrilling
Are the centers off 17" FM10s interchangeable with centers off 17" FM5s? The reason I ask is because on BFc someone had 18" FM5s and he said the centers were interchangeable with his 17" FM10s. So I'm not sure now. Any info on this?

Also, could I get a FM5 center redrilled from 5x114.3 to 5x120 without any issues?

Since fikes dont have center caps the redrill woulnt look good imo.

fm5 and fm10 faces are but not from 17 to 18 unless he has stepped lips like these.

yes I believe FM5 and FM10 faces are interchangeable. not sure about 17" vs 18"

don't think it's a wheel I'd want to redrill though
