People drill the rivets off.
Should be something about it here:

Use a sharp, (pref new) 8mm high speed steel drill to drill out each rivet, then touch the spots and remaining back-plate up with black Smoothrite, (smooth Hammerite).

presumably your putting a larger rear disc conversion one??
easier is to simply trim the "return" lip of the backing plate and then its still mostly enclosed
