so this would be almost flush without the spacers i assume...
Here’s a pic before the flares and spacers.
And one with flares, but no spacers.
Main reason I added the spacers was to get more clearance between the tire and knuckle.
This was before the 2” spacers (it did have some 1/4” spacers from the previous owner in this pic though)
This is after spacers.

Basically, the back side of the spacers are hubcentric, and centers off of the ring on the hub.
The front face of the spacer has the same centering ring as the face of the factory hub for centering the wheel.
these are hub and wheel centric,

These are not. notice how these do not have the centering ring on the outer face.

I assumed that if it is hub centric the whole hole thru that centers in hub in. The inside would be also centered on outside
you're mostly correct. the pacer does center over the hub.
However, the factory wheels are not designed to be centered by the lug nuts (Lugcentric). The wheels need the ring on the hub to center them. The lug nuts only hold the wheel to the hub, they do not center it.
If you look at the links I posted above, the second spacer does not have the wheel centering ring on the outer face, and simply bolting on the wheels could result in the wheel center not aligning with the hub center.
I have 22 hellcat replicas. Guess I may have to trim1.5" or larger is usually good to not cut the wheel studs. If using OEM wheels you'll be fine without a trim, with aftermarket is where you may have to trim the wheel studs.
