My "new" '74 Duster- or why I need a project like a hole in the head

Why not machine the rotor hubs down to fit the rims? Assuming I am understanding that there isn't enough meat in the rims to machine them out to fit the rotors.

Do the B-Body spindles use the smaller inner bearing? Or do they use the later large inner bearings? Not familiar with the B-Body spindles and how they are different than the A-Body spindles. I assume they use the same geometry, though.

Because of the geometry of the rims I'd need to take about .2" out of the hub, and it would have to go pretty deep into the hub as well because the face of the rim is pretty narrow (7/8"). Basically its needs enough taken off the hub to make me start thinking about the strength of the hub. It would probably be fine, but I'm pretty committed to running larger brakes at this point. I've come to the conclusion that I bought the worst possible set of rims to try to stick on this car. They look awesome, but there aren't a lot of options to actually make them work. But like I said, buying a new set of rims AND brakes will set me back as much or more than just the "right" brakes, so what the heck.

The B body drum spindles use the smaller inner bearing, but the larger upper ball joint. And after measuring the offset on the spindles it looks like the track width is about 3/16" narrower than the 73+ disks, so they should buy me a little bit of rim offset as well. The rest of the geometry is the same.
