Had this problem for a while now,fitted coilovers and had to fit some spacers and since then i get wheel vibration...the spacers are just plane flat one's they don't have a lip for the wheel to mount on...which is what is needed,i was told by a wheel specialist?..do i need to fit 10 mm spacers (hubcentric) with longer wheel bolts to sort the problem or just fit some longer wheel bolts to make up the 5mm i lost with the spacer's...getting fed up now...any help cheers Sad

well you answered your question,since the one you fitted is plane flat,that makes the vibration to happen,as the wheel itself is not based on the (hubcentric),which take the load off the bolts :),but for what you have now,all the load is on the bolts,and I don't imagine how you left your old bolts on with spacers on,as you SHOULD use longer bolts,but not too long,make sure to calculate it.,and your problem will be SOLVED Very Happy
