I understand it's best to have the same hubs and rotors on both wheels to avoid any issues in the differences in spacing and rotor mounts.
-
I was wondering how practical is this?
Lots of people do it. It's easier if your hubs, rotors and cassettes are all the same, but even buying the same models doesn't guarantee that because Tolerances.
At least with post mount brakes it's easier to adjust.
Chain wear...well you know the answer there. Whatever is the least worn gets worn down fastest in the situation you describe. A worn chain will wear an unworn cassette, and a worn cassette will wear a worn chain. Until they are balanced.

You can get wheelsets with 6 bolt rotors pretty close, with some of these:
Syntace Disc Rotor Shims 0.2mm
hope 1mm, 2mm, 2.5mm

Not sure if this is the right thread for this but I'm thinking about having two sets of wheels to swap in and out for different types of rides (on aa disc brake bike).
I was wondering how practical is this?
If they're different hubs will I need to adjust the brake callipers?
Will having two cassettes (all be it the same type and ratio) be an issue with chain wear?
And the same with brake rotors, will there be any problems there?
