Ibicha wheel spacer problem

Hi everybody, here it is my story:

Last month, i decided to install a wheel spacer. I follow the spech step by step from the ibisha manuel. My car after the installation stay good and have no change handling at all. Last week, I go to the dealers to do the maintenance #3 (The big one). When I return at home my car do vibration and "shake" no sense... After 60 mph... So i return to the dealers explain that. They said they have no clue, they re balance all wheel and nothing wrong...They blame me for the spacer bla bla bla. I return at home and I released and re install the spacer they look nothin wrong and the vibration stay....

My setup is G37 XS coupe with eilbach, Ibicha 20 mm front and 25 mm rear with the stock 19" wheel

Anybody have the same problems??

Thanks in advance!

P.S.Sorry for my poor english, it's not my first language.

Did the spacers come with hub centric rings?

Yes the V2 model and the dealer don't released it. It's the reason why I re install it by himself to check If they don't release it

Try removing the spacers and driving to see if the vibration is there. If it still is without the spacers, then you can bring it back to the dealer. If not, then the spacers are the problem.

I had the same thing happen, Dump the Ichibas and get HR's. I went through two sets and never got it to go away. At 60+ my car felt like it was going to come apart..

I used to have Ichiba's. They're really good, quality spacers. Just make sure they're torqued down properly, honestly. There really shouldn't be any problems with them. Maybe it is just a fluke and you got some lemon spacers, but before you do anything, try removing them, driving around, and then putting them back on more carefully, and see what happens.
