Exclamation Easier 5 lug maybe?

I dont really know if anyone has tried this but it just popped into my head. Why not just re-drill the stock 4-lug hubs at a shop and make it 5 lug...like you can with the disks for the 300zx upgrade. Would this compromise anything? Since the brakes dont have any negative effect...maybe this can be done for the hubs without any troubles as well. Its worth someone to try I think
