Issues with wheel shimmy post spacers
Hi All,
Thank you for all the feedback. I appreciate your help! I'm taking my car into Matrix today and we're going to take everything apart to make it it all came together correctly. As for the spacers, they are brand new H&Rs that we bought from Tire Rack and we did go with the right (longer) lug nuts.
I will let you know what we find!

Hi All,
Well, as it turns out the front spacers are probably not going to work. After the spacers are installed their isn't enough of the wheel guide left to center the wheel properly on the hub. As you can see from these photos...
Dang, I really like the stance the front had with the spacers, but we're not seeing how to get the wheel centered on the hub perfectly. If anyone has any ideas that would be great!

All of the above replies are good info. I'd remove the spacers in front, reinstall the wheels sans spacer properly torqued and see if the problem remains. Then checking the spacers for trueness I'd install one side take a very short ride to see if reoccurs , if not install the other side and repeat the test run. In short try to isolate the cause. Be sure to retorque after 75 miles or so. It's probably something very minor in the install, I like others didn't have any issues with my identicle install. Good luck

You could probably get away with a wide hubcentric spacer in the front.
