What is the reasoning for going to lug centric rims?

Considering adding some aftermarket Dick Cepek GM7 wheels to my otherwise stock Ram1500. I've been doing quite a bit of research on the concerns of going from the factory hub-centric wheels to an aftermarket lug-centric design on a tow vehicle due to the load on the wheel studs vs. the axle hub. Does anyone have any opinion on this or reason why I shouldn't install aftermarket lug-centric wheels considering i tow a 31' travel trailer (~8000 lbs) with this truck ?
