I wasn't trying to say you should do the 5 lug swap by any means, just as you originally stated; if you don't want to use 5 lug only rims there really is no reason. I was also trying to be careful about sounding like I was expecting you to be driving like a bat out of hell. I just strongly feel that spending a few hundred to upgrade the front to a disc brake is a more than well worth investment (there are quite a few upgrade kits that would keep the stock 6 lugs). They really do make quite a difference in stopping distance, and that may be all that is needed to avoid the kid that popped out from behind the parked car in front of you, (even while going 25 in a school zone). Sorry man, in spite of my postings I'm really not trying to give you a hard time, I just tend to strongly advocate safety.
