I have some Kahn 17 inch wheels on my corsa C with 205/40 17 tyres.
Have spacers on front to stop rubbing on brake calipers.

Someone told me with universal spacers can totally mess up the threads on your hubs as there is no centre bore on the universal spacers. I have noticed alot of vibrating at around 70mph with my 17s which I originally thought was balancing.

As I am new to wheels etc can someone give me some advice?

if you use spacers you need to get longer bolts to compensate, also u risk shaggin ur bearings.
