I have also wondered how you compensate for the caliper being mounted further forward on the adapters? I assumed the sliding range of the caliper can cope with it, perhaps there's plenty of play either side of the pads? I also looked at a few pics of the proper disc hubs and the caliper carrier mounting holes do seem slightly raised in comparison to the hub bolt holes.

I am half tempted to just use my drums I got with my drive shafts and ditch rear discs for now, I am a little worried about the front/back bias of the brakes when using rear discs. Especially after AdrianH had trouble with rear drums locking up too soon.
