Audi A4 and wheel spacers
I put 5 mm spacers behind stock 17's on my car and now I get a vibration like an out of balance wheel.
Do you think that the wheel was slightly out and pushing it further from the car just makes it worse?  Thanks, Rick

Are they hub centric spacers?

Here is a pic of some spare BBS RK wheels that I have left over from my old S4. See the green ring at the hub? That makes sure that the wheel will be centered on the Audi hub(hubcentric). It is different for each car. There are also different bolts holding the wheel on.

So, in answer to the question, yes they are. I have to say it was slightest vibration. I took them off tonight and will see what I find. I could have lost a wieght?.
Bill, those are pretty cool wheels. Any pics of the front side?
