Check that your crank mounting bolts are actually 15mm (many are 14mm, and some, rarely, 16mm), and that your socket will fit into the crank arm. Many inexpensive sockets are too thick to fit into the arm.This is less likely to be an issue if your crank uses 14mm bolts.
Do I need a pin spanner though, for my bike?
Possibly. If the adjustable cup has pin holes for a pin spanner, then yes. Some adjustable cups have flats or slots instead of pin holes; for those the Park HCW-11 works well.
