Is Anti-Seize safe for the hubs to prevent the rusting?

Is Anti-Seize safe for the hubs to prevent the rusting?

Any downsides to using anti-seize on the hubs to prevent the rust?

Here's an attached picture with numbering of areas, based on this picture what spots do you want to apply Anti-Seize and what spots do you stay away from?

3,4, and 5 are fine. You dont want to get it near the braking surface.

Basically you want it on the contact points right? or just all around those 3-4-5 areas?

Correct, Just where it contacts the hub. You dont have to slather it all over the place.
