Those wheels are nice tho.
Not sure this is legit mechanics, but if it’s close can you add a spacer between caliper and frame to bring it out a bit and readjust pads?
Otherwise I’d personally live with a mismatched caliper. (Oh the shame).
I imagine that’s not a good solution tho.

IMO there's no shame in mismatched calipers unless you're running Campy, since they're the only mob to ever offer a dual pivot / single pivot pair.
Any half-decent single pivot can lock up the rear, so anything beyond that hurts modulation, and worse, is a waste of metal (the horror).
I've never run a rear DP. My nice bike is rocking full 9000 except for a BR-7400.

Yeah I could do that but I have a Sram Red 22 group which I would like a stay with if I can.
