Does the center bore only affect the original wheels? Do I have to check the center bore on the after market rims when I look for a second hand one?

The center bore on the new rims would have to be as large or larger than the stock center bore.

If smaller, the wheel would have a space between it and the rotor and be very unsafe to drive.

To add to what Fastest said, if the new wheel has a larger bore than the original wheel, a hubcentric ring (google it) is used to make up the difference so that the new wheel mounts as snugly as the original.

As long as the lug holes are tapered, I think the lugs (assuming also tapered) would center the wheel enough on the hub.

That's true, but hub rings are usually used to make up the difference.
