FP motors actually seem to be a bit better than CIMs.
In any case, using only 2 CIMs for drive will halve the power of your robot. Replacing 2 with FP motors will help, but you'll get weird, unequal forces that are really only good for a basic 4wd robot. Using 2 FP motors for a shooter and 4 CIMs for the drive keeps the drive consistent in terms of power and allows you to use different types of drive, especially omni/mecanum, which are practically impossible if you're using motors with different torque and speeds.
