Just wondering if anyone knows... I have a set of fb lugs, but a set of sa wheels, they don't quite look the same, but pretty close... will it work?

sa studs are longer for the sa wheels. so basically you need fb studs for any wheel other than stock sa.

Are you talking lug length or distance apart? The FB spacing is larger than the SA so you can not switch wheels.

Excluding the SE, the wheels all swap just fine, done it many times. You just need the longer lug bolts for the SA wheels, and the shorter lug bolts for the FB wheels.
