wheels Vibrate help

I notice my car starts to vibrate when going over 75mph, it only happens with my aftermarket wheels (HRE FF04). I recently threw on my stock wheels back on for the winter and have no vibration at 90mph. I run spacer for my HRE and stock wheels. Has anyone ever had this problem?

I had that when I first ran spacers, I would get a steady and consistent vibration as soon as I would hit ~70mph. I jacked the car back up and backed the lugs out and re-torqued each wheel without the full weight of the car on them (making sure to alternate the lugs)…that worked for me.

Do you dedicated summers tires if so and depending on the area of the country you are after the temp falls below the recommended threshold for the tires they can add to the feeling of vibration as the rubber compound gets colder.. Is this something your recently noticed or have you been dealing with it for a few months just curious.

Things that can cause this.
Wheel and tire balance, spacers, and defective wheel (not fully round). Also, bad/uneven/mismatched tires.
