Is it possible to just put the 4 piston calipers on my SE w/out switching to 5 lug? I would only have to switch the calipers right? It doesn't seem like it would be that hard....

The rotors are different thickness and probably different offset to line up with the caliper opening.



Also the 4 lug wheels might not fit right if the 4 pistons calipers are in place. Might need a spacer to clear it or might be too high to with in the wheels inside circumference.



This is just my hypothesis not facts.
