I'm looking to set up my '09 FE 570 with an SM wheel set. I have a set of Warp 9's off my old DRZ. The guys at Warp 9 tell me that the rear will bolt right up, but the front will not.

What I'm wondering is what the difference between my 17" warp 9 and a 16.5" wheel really is? I've found a few reasonably priced 16.5's out there, but I don't want to end up having a hard time finding street rubber. BTW, I almost exclusively run Pilot power's on the front.

Any advise would be great.

Thanks.

the front won't be a 16.5 unless its for racing, it'll be a 17". the hub will be different in the front at a guess. I'd imagine the spacers on the rear would be out.

worst case, buy 2 new KTM hubs and relace on your rims.
 
I have never seen a road legal tire in 16.5 inch except on a ducati desmodeici, and race tires in that size are twice the price as 17's.
