Question Front Disk Brake Conversion 1965 C10

I bought a set of 6 lug steelies for my 1965 C10. We just did a disk brake conversion in the front, and the hub hole will fit around the front hub perfect. But, in the rear (still original) the hub holes will not fit around the hub, due to the rear hubs (original) being larger than the front hubs (new disk brakes.) Is it okay to mill out the hub holes on two of the wheels so that they fit around the rear hubs?

If you open up the wheel center hole, then you will always have to use those wheels on the rear. If it were mine, I would have the hub register on the axles machined down to fit the wheels. I assume your front hubs are about 3.062" diameter?
