Fikse Classic wheels like the FM5 uses the same centers on both the 17" and 18" wheels which is probably why most around here just run the 17" wheels and save some coin on both the wheels and tires.
The Profil line is supposed to have the centers change in diameter as the wheels get larger (one of their marketing points). But with the old fashoned stepped lips they don't look the part of an 18" wheel. Perfect example is the 5S wheels on the Blue TA above, they are 18s but look much more like 17s IMO.
Tony, Andy's Berger does in fact have 17s on it.

And as said before, the Classic line the center "disc" remains the same diameter for 17" or 18" wheels.
The Profil line the diamter of the "disc" changes with the wheel diameter.
