No. All OE wheels are hub centric including the rear wheels on my 1991 John Deere 430. Being hub centric the wheels automatically are 'true' with the axle hub as well as distributing the load radially. The studs / bolts are designed to clamp the wheel laterally.
By using a wheel that is not the correct hub centric, you place all the load on the wheel studs which is not what they were designed for. Further, the wheel / tire assy will very likley have radial runout.
There are a few companies that make hub centric spaces where it matches the difference between axle hub OD and wheel center bore ID, to take care of this problem.
