Wheel spacers and hub centric rings

Wheel spacers and hub centric rings
I recently acquired some 2nd gen wheels and rather than shaving down the brake nut, I measured and it looks like I need 1/4" clearance. I found 1/4" wheel spacers (slip ons) but none with the correct center bore size. My '95 has a center bore of 71.5mm and these spacers are 82.5mm. Will that be an issue if the wheels themselves are lug-centric? Or do I need to find a hubcentric ring with an OD of 82.5 and ID of 71.5?

I don't believe that Dodge wheels are hub centric, then again I can't find any definitive yes / no on the interwebs. You could try any search engine to find out?
At any rate I don't think they are, but you might have to go to Dodge to find out for sure, but if it concerns you then buy spacers that have a center ring included, it will make mounting the wheels a whole lot easier anyhow.
As it is you will need spacers to run these on gen1 trucks, especially if you bought the 8" wide version, which I wouldn't. The 7" version is perfectly fine, especially on gen 1 where they're going to rub.
