Agreed, for the most part. Ideally the best way to get the correct offset is to purchase the rims manufactured with the correct offset in the first place (i.e. not with a spacer, if at all possible).
I also agree that the best way to get the broken stud base out is with a press. You can try to hammer it out, but be forewarned that you'd likely damage the wheel bearing by doing it that way. The wheel bearing isn't designed to take that type of lateral hammering force.
