Ohhhh, I see. You will have to grind the alloy down without buggering the cages to do it. I would say its possible, but wont they look pony afterwards

They are riveted on mark

so with some decent metal work kit they can be done, either re anno the cages and rivet them on or as you say retap the hole and screw in with some grub screws

Do able but fiddly
