a f2 wheel has different rotors my 2 cents

the best reason to convert i can come up with is a better selection of rubber

It's the F3 front wheel that will bolt right up with no modifications. You are right, the main reason for upgrading is the better selection of rubber avaliable for the 17" front tire.
