Safe to change SID while joined to domain?

Hello,

I was just wondering... is it safe to change the SID of a client PC while it is still joined to the domain?  Would there be any repercussions?

I have found duplicate SIDs on the domain (found out sysprep was not regenerating SIDs!!!  arg!!!)  and I was wondering if I need to dis-join them from the domain, change the SID, the re-join the domain... that option would suck.

thanks
