The wheels would be relying strictly on the lugs for locating.

Or I wonder if I could get a spacer built that has a hub nub that sticks out to act as a wheel pilot.

You can roll the lip up with a ball bat for more clearance. I've also heard the fender itself can be streched out quite aways without using add-on fender flares. You just have to get the right body shop to do it. Another thing that may help to get more clearance is a bit of negative camber as discused in another thread in the suspension section. The hypotnuse of a triangle is longer than one of it's sides.
