I'm so confused!!
When looking for new discs I'm finding 2 sets of prices, one for discs with hubs and ones without. What are these hubs and which should I buy??

Discs with hubs are for first cars.
Hub is a place for the bearing. My 1986 es have rear discs integrated with hub and bearing. In my 1990 turbo discs are independent part. Hub and bearing is mounted on the rear axle.

With 99% certainty I can say yes, but you must check empirically
Remove the rear wheel and compare what you see with the photos in this topic:
