Default anyone using FK spacers?

I'm looking at getting either 10mm or 15mm for my stock Avus rims. Ideally I'd go with MTM but at $270 for a set of 4, that seems kind of expensive for spacers. FK and H&R are cheaper. I STFA and saw quite a few negative comments about the H&R's. I don't know if this is only because they're the most popular or if they actually are problematic. Achtuning has the FK spacers for about the same price as H&R (~$200 for a set of 4) . Anyone have any experience with these FK spacers?

Or should I stop being stingy and drop the extra $75 or so and go with MTM?

Default do u know if they were Type A, B, or B+

Seems like with Type A you just use longer bolts to bolt on the spacer and the wheel.

But Type B and B+ you actually use the supplied bolts to bolt the spacer to the hub and then use the regular bolts to bolt the wheel to the spacer. Seems kinda strange to use 2 sets of bolts.

I've only used the Type As, no experience with the others.
