What's involved and what is the price of converting a 4 lug set up to a 5 lug. I want to mount the 16 inch 8G rims on my ride.

well i am going to do this! for all i know is u need 5 lug hubs from a 1g or 2g eclipse(which is it of both?), rotors, and calipers. eclipses had 4wheel disc brakes so thats a plus. AND the biggest reason i want to swap to 5lug is the big brake kits that are made for the 1gs and 2gs
