What's the interference problem, do the rims have too
small of a center hole? Would it be solved by the use
of spacers between the drums and rims? If so he could
have his existing drums studded and find some spacer
rings as were popular for increasing the track width
on 356 Porsches.
They're still available new, if a bit spendy:

But from time to time they show up on eBay or
theSamba.
