Bear in mind that with the first one, the dish (without the boss) will bring it closer by 95mm. Once you add the snap-off it'll be a lot closer! Both links are snap-off adapters, the only real difference is how deep they are so how much further it brings the wheel out.
Although, Matt had on of the slimmer cheap ones, and it was shocking! It had loads of play in it, so it was sacked off

Sounds like the same one I bought. If it is then he only gives you store credit. I had to open a PayPal dispute to get my money back

Yeah that's the exact one I have, it's currently say in the passenger footwell after I removed it. Zero play for the first day. Then it starts to rock and just gets worse

It does look pretty cheap and nasty compared to some of the proper ones. If i were going snap off i'd get a flat wheel, as a dished wheel on a boss brings the wheel miles away from the dash. It's fine where it is now but I couldn't cope with it being 5-6cm closer!
