cb1100 RS wheel conversion

Fat tire always look more sexy .
One concern is the gap of the swing arm, if it's large enough for the RS rim, as the tire is 180.

So, this is my project for next year: Converting my 2014 st.d with 18" wheels to 17" wheels (not spoked). i'm halfway between going all out and getting magnesium wheels for maximum weight savings, but i'm not completely sold on the idea yet. First, I want to explore the idea of simply getting the OEM wheels for the RS and slapping them on. it seems like an easy enough thing to do, but then again i've never seen an RS in person, so i'm calling on you folks in Europe and other markets where the RS is available to help me out with this.

First off, check your local Ebay and parts websites and let me know if there are used CB1100 RS wheels available for sale, and what the average price is. I've been trying to do this using foreign VPN's but i just want to make sure i'm hitting all the right websites to get a good idea of what's for sale. Thanks in advance for any prices you can send back to me.

Second off, For anybody that owns an RS, can you confirm that the wheels are mounted in the same way and would work as a straight swap to a 2014 model? The parts diagrams look very similar, but of course i'm not knowledgable enough to make that determination just from looking at those.

Finally, for RS owners, how jealous should i be of your awesome 17" tires?
