H&R vs Elephant Spacers

Does anyone have any opinion on the Elephant Racing style wheel spacers versus the H&R spacers?

The reason I ask is I was wanting to put spacers on the rear wheels on my narrow body 86 Carrera 3.2 to fill out the wheel wells. From what I read, about 15-21 mm would do it, but I began to wonder if the Elephant style would leave enough thread to bolt the lugs on securely.

The H&R style look like they come with built-in bolts.

(I don't race this car, BTW).

Any thoughts?

If you haven't installed longer studs and want to space it out ~21mm, you have to use the h&r or other brand adapters that have studs pressed into the spacer
