These would have less leverage on the hub vs a full peg with a bolt. Theoretically the hub should last longer

Have you ever ridden pegs my son...

when you're properly locked into a grind your main point of support is as close to the dropout as possible, what f*cks up the bolt is the cutting force, not produced by the leverage but by the impact

pegless grinds rest on the dropout

that's so you don't f*ck up the nuts/bolts on your hub

pegless grinds+ hubguards hub will likely be fine

Or do you use the pedal lol?

None of the above. You lock it onto the dropout, or less typically, the axle.

Someone here is selling a 2010 Shonky for very cheap (around 250). Is it worth the price? Just getting back into street and park riding with the occasional jump session. Not trying to spend a ton of money.

For a complete bike it's hard to go wrong for 250$. Take it for a ride see if you like it.

looking for a fat seat for my bike.
Are Chromag Overtures really worth the price or should I go with a standard BMX seat? I don't mind the look, just want a seat that is good to pinch when doing bars and suicides
