Default Wheel Bearings

My bike is an 06 and i have a rear wheel for 2000 and earlier. The bike uses a 1 inch axle. The wheel has 3/4 inch bearings. i bought 1 inch bearings for the 06 to swap them out but they dont fit diameter wise into the wheel hub. anybody know what type of 1 inch bearings will fit?

Another option i was contemplating, I found a 16x3.5 front wheel for 2000 and up that uses 1 inch bearings and uses dual disc. my question is can i use this front wheel as a rear wheel since its dual disc, my thoughts were maybe i could mount my belt pully on one side and my rotor on the other. Any thoughts?


The wheels in question are:
