15mm spacer question

I think I'm going with a 15mm spacer on my car (rear), my question is once you get to 15mm size do the spacers come with the shallow nuts to put on the existing studs or is that reserved for over 15mm size?

Also the wheels I will be using are a +45 offset, so basically adding a 15mm spacer would bring it to +30?
Would +30 on a 10" wide rim be the same as a +30 on an 8.5" wide rim?

Thanks

Roy , I run Ichiba V2 15mm spacers on the rear of my FX50. They come with the built in studs and shallow nuts. You just have to make sure the wheels you are using have recesses to allow for the studs that protrude thru the spacer.

Hmmm that I'll have to check, the wheels are concave so I don't think there is any room.

Thanks Wayne!

Roy, check the mounting face of your wheels, you need recesses between the stud holes on the back of your wheels.

Here is a pic of the back of a wheel showing the recess, most wheels have this.
