Give Ryano at Fourbys a call. If the stud PCD isn't a great difference he can get the rims re-drilled & steel lug collar inserts placed in the rims. Not sure if the DC1's don't already have the steel insert as MT rims usually do.

I thought it was illegal to modify rims like that.

Otherwise, getting the second hole drilled for inner air bead locks would also be allowed.

If it's done by an approved rim repairer it's legal. Biggest thing is that there has to be enough meat in the boss of the rim to handle the redrill and inserts.
