Need to swap out the original 4 lug for new 5 lug. Front and rear obviously. How much will it cost? What hubs should I use and who makes them? Thanks for the support guys!

the front "hubs" don't interchange
you need to change the strut on the front
and possibly the a-arm while your there (not absolutely required but gives you stiffer suspension)
(recommended to replace the shocks bushings, ball joint, sway bar, and wheel bearings... oh... yeah replace the brakes, new rotors, different calipers, rebuild teh calipers, new pads, and brake lines while your in there. The 911 brakes bolt to the 911 struts and give you a vented front brake)

the rears will interchange
although it would be cheaper to have yours welded, machined, and drilled into a 5 bolt.....
(you have to replace the rear bearings while your there)


probably 1K if you do your own work... maybe 1,500 with shocks and rebuilding the calipers.
