That's pretty simple. If they have a flat face and fit loosely on the hub before cinching down, they are lug centric. If they fit snug on the hub when you push them on, and have a lip for the wheel to fit snugly on as well, they are hub centric.

These are a set of lug centric spacers that are on the rear of my 78 dually. The aftermarket wheels that are on that truck have a huge center bore so that they can fit 8x6.5 Ford, Chevy, and Dodge hubs with just one wheel, and use conical lugs, so hub centric would have been worthless in that application.

I don't have a picture of the hub centric spacers on my F250, but here is a picture of the OEM front hub spacer from a 4wd F350 Dually, you can see the hub centric lip on these.

Thanks for sharing that information man. Defiantly good information to know. Now the real question is, what do y'all think would look better. The factory 20s with spacers or the XD chrome spy's possibly with the spacers too! Lol

Roger that man! Thanks for clarifying. I wasn't trying to say you sold me some bad spacers. Just wasn't exactly sure about them.
No worries at all.

Between those two, I say spacers and Spys! It will give a nicer, more aggressive stance. If they were the other 20" styles, either the 5 spoke or the 8 spoke with the flat face I would say keep the OEM 20s, but I'm not a big fan of the rounded off 8 spokes like you currently have.

That's kinda what I'm thinking. The guy is willing to do an even trade and I'd just pay for the tire swap! I'd say that's a pretty good deal...right? Lol
