It's not an issue at all, as long as you tighten the lug nuts evenly. If you don't work on your car, but rather have it done at a shop, just tell them your wheels are not hub-centric, so they will also avoid ramming in all the nuts with a high speed air impact-wrench. Well, I never want my lug nuts being rammed regardless of hub size anyway : )

In racing, 99% of the time, the best wheels for the job will have bigger bore. There are hub ring adapters to make it hub-centric, but people found that they are not necessary at all, and the safety is not compromised by any means as long as you don't get it mounted by a Jiffy Lube crew. If you care, you can find those hub ring adapters (usually plastic, sometimes metal) for very cheap.
