Hub-centric rings don't carry any load and are not required for a secure installation as the studs hold the rim on to the hubs

Because the studs have to be longer and so does the threaded area between the lug nut and the hub which makes it more prone to stretching.

Hub-centric wheels are designed for the center bore of the wheel to be a perfect match to the vehicle's hub, sometimes called a hub pilot. This allows the wheel and tire assembly to be centered on the hub, which is the most accurate way to install your wheels.

if you get longer studs, it should be ok as the non threaded part would go through the spacer for strength
