yes it has been done, quite easy to do, there was a write up a couple of months ago.

 

Why do you want to do this?

 

cheapest way to get your braking powers
rear drum to disc
front with ITR caliper
good setup..
but if i were you.. i will just stick with either one
imagine you are trying to buy a set of wheels..? then what you are gonna do?
2 each?

 

i could see that being useful if it was basically just a drag car... other then that seems a bit impractical.

 

i'd do the nsx front swap before having to deal with mis-match rims.

but thats on you captain, i've seen people do dumber stuff on here to be "different"

 

ive been thinking about doing this also... stronger hub contact in front.. the 5lug hubs also have 5mm more offset... better options for wider front wheels because of the 5lug... and nsx brakes RL brakes ect. wont need redrilled rotors... good track setup..

ps
running wider wheels in front like that.. or lower offset in fron helps turn in (a big plus for FWD cars)
