Default Stand - part two

So I went looking at rear stands yesterday night. The shop I went too had about 7 different models: Hindle, Kimpex, and some others. None of them had adjustable width thingy to set the proper width to reach the spools. You just force them into submission???

I'm tempted by the Suzuki one, since I get 15% of parts at my dealer for a year. Anyone got comments on those? And what about spools? Any 8mm spools are okay or are there ones that are better (if so how?)

Edit: I'm talking about this one here
