Default Wheel spacer question

Hey Guys.
I just purchased a new set of wheels for ITR and need to run 10 mm spacers. My question is what are the pro's and con's of getting hubcentric spacers versus non-hubcentric spacers? Will there be alot of vibration if I opt not to get hubcentric? Are there any brands that are better than others as in quality and effectiveness? Are there any issues I should tackle or things I should know before buying spacers? Sorry to sound like a tool but the more reserach I did the more confused I got so I thought I would ask you guys.
Thanks,

Get hub-centric spacers. H&R make good, quality sets at 5mm, 15mm, and 25mm. If you do find a 10mm set, you'll need to install new wheel studs as there will not be enough threads on the OEM wheel studs for the lug nuts to hold onto.

Take a look at King Motorsports site http://www.kingmotorsports.com...at=14 as they are a quality place and are also a sponsor of EXPO. Support those who help the ITR community (and sponsor EXPO)!!!

I have the H&R 15mm spacers milled down to about 8mm and they are hubcentric and work excellent. They also came with extended H&R studs as well.
