YES, this is a problem. The wheel should not be floating off the hub. That's why they call it a hub, it's supposed to support the weight of the car. The lug bolts are to keep the wheel connected to the hub, the hub is supposed to bear the weight of the vehicle. This is not safe at all. lug bolts are not designed to support the weight of the car.
