Make sure the hub centric rings fit snug in the rims and in the hub of the car.
Just order a set of aluminum HUB rings. Hopefully it will fix the issue.

i will try this weekend.

If the hub centric ring don't stop the vibration I afraid that it's going to
Be the tires. If you can't return the tires back your next step would be to balance
Them with road force...
Keep us posted..

Have your wheels balanced with the spacers on. It's easy

I didn't use the spacers in this case. A new set of aluminum HUB spring will arrive this week. I will keep all posted on this issue.

I bet it's cheap made wheels. Incurve Concave. Also tires they have flat spots.

finally update from the exiting issue.

I ordered a set of aluminum of the HUB centric, and found out that 2 out of 4 wheels that didnt not fit the HUB tightly enough to center the wheel while driving. I went ahead and install the HUB to the other 2 and swap one side to the other now.

Now, with that tight fit from the aluminum HUBs centric and from the swap. The vibration has been noticeable reduced more than 50% compare to before and seem to be controllable. However I need to call the wheel dealer to request a replacement for the other 2 wheel in order to get away from the vibrations.

That's it guy. Wheel problem ....

Is the whole car vibrating or is it the steering wheel? You may want to check your alignment after installing 20". My car was doing a similar thing and I just recently had the wheels balanced and got an alignment and fixed. Everything is now riding smoothly.

Fresh looking ride btw, I dont see enough red G's on these forums!
