Default Question about spacers!!!!!

As some of you know, I recently bought 20" Weds with little conservative offset in the front 20x8.5 with (+37 offset) so I am thinking about putting a 10mm spacer which is about 0.354 inch or 3/8 inch approx.

My questions is that with spacer, would I run into a vibration problem?

My rear is fine. Its does not looked tucked in at all but it does not look very aggressive either. I am pretty happy with the rear.

Some one told me that if I put spacers in the front, I may have a vibration issue that can not be fixed no matter how much I balance my wheels.

Is that true?

Thanks

I only use 3mm hubcentric spacers on my LS430 but no vibration issue.

10mm? make sure you get longer studs, that's a more serious problem. if you do it right, there should be no vibration, but you are still putting more stress of course
