Hi,
I installed 30 mm hub centric spacers like a month ago and my ride was fine back then
A week ago i started feeling that the car is vibrating when driving above 60.
Is it the spacers that are causing the rough ride?

What specs did you torque the adapters at and have you rechecked them after 500 miles put on them?

For me I torqued them to 150ft lbs. and noticed vibes the next day. I'm going to go back and lower it to 100ftlbs

when you add something to the car and everything is great and dandy then you know you have a good product and the install went as planned, if a few weeks or months you get something like vibrations then all you need to do is re check things over, in your case yes re torque for sure and try to make it part of your maintenance schedule.
