Spacers: Hub Or Lug Centric?

[Tego]

I'm in the market for spacers but I'm not sure when it comes to purchasing the spacers, hub or lug centric. I know Spidertraxx makes a set but unfortunately they're out of stock at the moment. Does it make a difference if I buy hub or lug centric? I'll be using my OEM wheels if that helps. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Freddy

Will these spacers work?

Would it make a difference if I run lug centric spacers on my 4th gen?

Only Hubcentric! It does not take much to put a wheel off center and throw it off balance. 4 wheeling puts great strain on the wheels, the more direct you can keep the wheels to the hubs, the better off you are.

Don't plan on off-roading if that helps. :S

Are FJ cruisers hub or lug centric?

FJC's, Tacos and last gen Tundras/Sequioas are hubcentric. Those spacers on Ebay look right... The 108mm is key and IIRC that's the correct size.

You can make lugcentric work if you want but the advice here is...
Correct me if I'm wrong but ALL oem use hubcentric. Lugcentric is just an economical way to manufacture for more applications cheaply since they require plastic spacers to center them on the hub.

Would the spacers I posted in the ebay link work without any issues?

On second look I vote no. Look at the pic here: http://www.spidertrax.com/Toyota-Hub-Centric-Spacer You can clearly see the 'lip' for the rim to align itself on making these spacers hubcentric. The ones in the Ebay pics are not.
