Default Converting 4 lug wheel pattern to 5 lug.

How hard is this to do? I mean, I just got at the CV Joint, and I started thinking "If I have the wheel/rotor this far out, why couldn't I just disconnect the thing and put the 5 lug hub from the V6 on my 4cyl accord.?

I'm talking mainly of 5th Gen, now. But in both the 6th and 7th Generation, doesn't the 4cyl Accord have 4 lug bolt patterns whereas the 6cyl models have 5-lug bolt patterns?

Wouldn't a 5-bolt pattern give greater flexibility in OEM wheel choices? You know like if I wanted to get some 17" OEM alloy Acura wheels and put on my 4cyl '97 Accord EX?

Anybody ever done this sort of thing?
