Wheel adapters or Spacers/studs

So for my new wheel setup i need to run a 15mm spacer to clear my brakes

my question is Which do you guys feel better about running, 15mm bolt on hubcentric wheel adapters or extended studs and 15mm hubcentric spacers???

Of course i would locktight the adapters and my wheels would work with them because they have cavities in the back that the leftover stock stud would fit into.

Ive asked a bunch of people and got mixed reviews

let me know as i gotta order asap

thanks

I prefer the bolt on spacers to be honest

I run the spacers with extended studs on my car, is your car going to be tracked a lot? if it is, you might want to consider getting a different set of wheels.

If you have time, do it right with studs. ARP makes a nice set.

I would go with the spacers and extended lug combination because I drive hard.
