Lots Of Questions About Spacers And Fitting Rims

I have a 1997 Lexus ES 300. I just took off the stock rims to put on a set of 2002 IS 300 rims with 215/50/17 tires. Of course the rear did not fit because I did no check the back spacing. Now that I have done a search and see that I need some sort of spacers I have some questions that I could not find answers to in the forums.

1. is it safe to use spacers

2. First can I use ¼ inch spacers with my stock studs or do I have to replace them with longer ones.

3 what size should I use? I have found 3/6 ¼ 5/16

4 has any one had vibration problems because the stock wheels are hub centric and when I use a spacer they will no longer be hub centric

5. should I use spacers on all 4 wheels so they are all even or should I only really use them on the back.

Thanks everyone for your help.
