I chose these wheels over the Billet Specialties. They are similar but the spokes are not solid. I liked that look better.

Why are you going from DISC to DRUM brakes?? 
In order to get any aftermarket disc kit (wilwood, strange) you either need to use a 9 or 10" drum spindle. They don't appear to make a kit anymore for the factory disc spindles.
If you have the 73 up disk brake spindles already you can get this kit from Wilwood.
Wilwood # 140-11019 solid rotor # 140-11019-D drilled rotor. Works with the 73-80 disk brake spindles A,B,E,& F body.

Thanks but my duster is a '70 with the factory KH disc setup which nobody seems to carry a kit for anymore. I believe at one time they did but not now.

Centerline Competition Series Split Spoke
Billet Specialties wheel centers are made by Centerline BTW..
So, if you get a Centerline you get the same wheel for less money... 
I have this wheel on my car.

okay, anyone running the 15x10 rears with 5.5BS or more and disc brakes? Summit doesn't mention on their site there is an issue with 5.5 or more backspace and calipers. I finally found it on Billet Specialties website. I am really upset now. I am also wondering if I'll find out the 15x4 2.25BS won't work with the wilwood front kit too!
