Not worth it. Improving the fronts would net better stopping results.

Not sure why anyone wants these except to "look cool"....I autocross my fit and have zero issues with the rear drums. I did swap the fronts to the type R calipers with Mini Cooper S rotors and a CR-Z master cylinder and that was a fantastic improvement. If you go to rear discs you better find a new proportioning valve otherwise you're going to lock up the rear discs during spirited or track driving, drums take a lot more line pressure than discs so the stock proportioning valve will lock up the rear discs. Like I said, waste of money that would be better spent somewhere else.
