If you get the 1.5" Spidertrax spacers, they are both lug and hub centric, and will absolutely be centered up no matter what.

Hub is better. Less vibrations and stress on the lugs.

This is correct. I highly recommend them. Part # WHS-010, if you can find them in stock anywhere.

No, they're not. But, you are adding significant leverage to the stock wheel studs by spacing the wheel centers 1.5" more outboard. The spacers being hub centric makes the combination stronger, be reducing the vertical load.
