Default Sterling 10.5 questions

I am very seriously considering swapping in a sterling 1 ton rear with the artec kit. My biggest issue with this is that I want to continue to use my spyderlocks which have the stock bolt pattern. Can I drill into the rotor and make my own bolt pattern? Has anyone done this? Is it worth it? Or am I better off getting new rims? I have 0 experience with these axles.
Thanks, any help is appreciated.

Won't work. Hub needs to be larger and won't work with the bolt pattern. You either need adapters or new wheels. So, sell what you have and get new wheels, or get adapters.

What are you running on the front? That rear axle is a lot wider.
