I tend to agree with MuayThai Fighter... Spin kicks are 99% useless. Even the fastest spin kicks are easily seen, blocked or countered...

My experience in Muay Thai is that spin kicks are not taught in Muay Thai camps. Those who do use spin kicks apply it on their own accord. It's not unusual to see spin kicks in ISKA, because a lot of their Muay Thai kickboxers cross train in karate or TKD.
