Rotor rub solutions?

How many of your guys experience rotor rub? I've got a bit on both front and rear and its occurring on the inboard side, so I can't shim away from the offending rotors. Already attempted to bend the rotor away from the inboard calipers. Do you just deal, or can you shim the rotors?

I just true my rotors or adjust the brakes, whichever is needed. 3 bikes, 3 different disc systems, works for me.
