Are the spacers hub-centric? That could be a reason. I've also heard that project kicks (sp?) spacers are of very high quality and vibration is not an issue with them.

Just to add, ensure your alignment is good.I needed an alignment and also steering wheel alignment on mine as I had a few shimmy's on take off. Roads are a factor too so test on a flat surface at the speeds where you get vibrations.
