Ahhh if it were only that cheap and easy all of us would be rolling on 5 lugs. Follow tequilakid's advice and search for the topic because I know it has been thouroughly covered before.

Dude, I've driven with 2 lugs on before. Your 4 lugs will be fine. No reason to switch to 5.

You know, with 5 lugs you just have more choises with rims. There are a set of rims that I want and they are 5 lugs. I am going to stick with the 4

The ITR community will disagree with this. There may be many 5-bolt wheels, but do they have the correct offset?

It's safer cause you will have cross drilled rotors which are prone to crack and you will have a modification which is not OEM and has most likely not been done by a proffessional using parts that aren't new and of unknown/questionable origin. Just my 0.02. Do as you want, just don't call it safer.
