Do Shimano Wheels come with Spacers?

[TwistingMyMelon]

Need a new set of comuteing wheels, just about to get these:

I will be fitting them to a 10 sped Shimano cassette, do you know if the wheel would come with the relevant spacer, or I would need to get one?

Tempted to get one of these, just in case: http://www.wiggle.co.uk/shimano-cs-hg-1mm-sprocket...

Any thoughts?

Cheers chaps

My RS81's came with the stainless shim, but you must use the spacer that comes with the cassette as well

Not sure that's correct tbh, I only use the one with cassette on dura ace hub..

You should only need one, and the only time you need something other is if you're on mavic on which case mavic supply it with wheels.

You know best, so carry on..........

I got a bit lost with all that.

So Shimano 10 is just the one spacer, but 11 is two? I've used two to make up for not having Mavic one before..but looking at it maybe all my hubs are 9/10 speed hence only used the one, 11 speed hasn't throw a spanner in the works!

Recently ordered two shimano cassettes (they were on sale) and both came with spacers.

Annoyingly one had an extra spacer in the middle that caused no end of swearing when trying to work out why my gears were jumping everywhere....
