Just use all new hardware (rotors, pads, fluid etc...) Make sure you have good clearance on the wheels. 15" slipstreams needed a little "massaging" to fit. This was done on an 89 CRX. As long as the rotors are drilled properley it's pretty much a cake walk.

You can do both wheels and calipers to a certain extent of minor clearance problems. Both were done on the above application.
