Any sort of spacer above bout 5-8mm will need to be hub centric and have it's own set of bolts. The bolts that come with the spacer, bolt it to the hub. You then use your original bolts to bolt your wheels to the spacer.
30mm is right on the limit I expect for wheel run on the inner arches. Put a straight edge across your tyre top to bottom (bit of wood will do) then measure at the top (level with the tread of the tyre) 30mm to see what clearance you will have. I suspect on the motorway your sports setting will be tolerable; on the twisty bits you may get a lot of tyre rub.
