According to Rehabilitation of the Offernders Act 1974, the cautions as considered spent as soon as they are served, and infact you do not need to mentioned that in your applicaton.
Now the point is, even if you mentioned that in your application, it will have no implication on your application.
Section 320 (7b) generally draws a ban of 10 years, not 320 (7a).
So I think you should be OK to apply again as dependant.
IMHO, you should send your documents via scanned copy to NACRO. (You can google it) and ask thier advise on it.
I will strongly suggest, NOT to apply for a visitor visa for your wife. Because her record with UKBA, shows that she had been your dependant in the past, and one of the requirement for visitor visa is the applicant have clear intentions to go back at the end of the stay. UKBA will have strong reservations on this as they will consider that she will not go back.
So stick to dependant application.
