I highly doubt that would get you any significant weight reduction as to make any kind of difference. Losing 1 lug per corner? That would add up to about 8 ounces of reduction.

Don't know the weight reduction, but aren't the brakes a little bit smaller as well?

Why would you want to lose braking power in the name of a few pounds, if that?

Wanna trade? I have a 2000 civic si, I would love bigger brakes, 5 lugs, and bragging rights, and I would love 20 more lbs.
