Default 3 Piece Wheel Parts Interchangeable?

I need new inner hoops for my Fikse FM-10s but I don't want to pay 325 a piece from fikse. I need (1) 17x7" or (2) 17x8" 20 hole hoops. I've heard I can use iforged, forgeline, ccw and kinesis but I really don't want to buy them and them not end up right. Anyone do this before? I couldn't find anything on it and who is the cheapest to get them through? And if anyone out there has them, hit me up and give me a price.

Dont think other brands would work unless everything lines up (unlikely). the screw holes would have to be drilled exactly the same specs and the seat of the hoop/barrel would have to match up too. just some ideas to think about.

That's what I would think. I've been told by thatcher that the kinesis parts will fit. On the outer barrel, the holes might show because they are 40 holes but I need an inner so it wouldn't matter but 20 holes are better because I'm **** like that

I'd give CCW a call. Since they freely post a video on their site, explaining how to dis-assemble, re-seal, and re-assemble a wheel, I think it's a safe bet that they readily sell parts, and would be able to tell you if their barrells will fit.

Ccw can make custom barrels that will fit your wheels. Thats probably the only route id trust.
