Or you could spend half that on the front big brake kit by RE-Speed (the conversion kit)
http://mrcmfg.com/catalog/product_in...products_id=37, add in some junkyard TurboII calipers, some cheap rotors and the stainless steel brake lines, some and decent pads and you've got better front brakes and the 5X114.3 bolt pattern that will give you the wheel options. Also in case you aren't aware, the front hubs are part of the brake rotor and the area that the lug screws into is thicker than the surrounding area of the hub. Unless your machinist is also a phenomenally skilled welder that can add material inside a ver narrow space, you probably won't have much peace of mind and will run the risk of serious damage, injury or death. RE-Speed also offers Moser axles that can be drilled any bolt pattern you want.
