Stock sintered pulleys are typically WAY off center. For flanged pulleys, you make a ring out of aluminum on the lathe that has an ID very close to the diameter of the lands on the pulley, and an OD larger than the flange. The thinckess of the ring should be a hair less than the space between flanges. You cut the ring into two halves, put them on the pulley and you can turn it accurately in the lathe. McMaster-Carr has a fair selection of XL pulleys.
If the hub is too small, you can just remove the hub and bore right through the teeth to insert the setscrews in the body of the pulley.
