I think if you have a stock 10-bolt and the car
isn't bent, then adjustables are just one more
thing to adjust (but no benefit to doing so).

If you have crazy big tires, or an aftermarket
rear that might be some fraction of an inch
different in the location of mounting hardware
then I could see a use. Do you have a desire
for the rear to be someplace different than it
it now, fore/aft or thrust angle?

Otherwise I'd go for stiffness and plain durability.
I don't like the designs with the bushing tube
T-welded to the arm; why add another "critical
weld"? I do like the ones where the bushing
is "captive" in rectangular stock and of course I
like my cheap, ugly, boxed factory ones with the
hard rubber 1LE bushings just fine too.

A lot of people get the adjustables to get that little bit of extra clearance for larger tires. You should be fine using non adjustables.
