The stock hubcentric lip on BMWs can stick out by as much as 11mm. This leaves a gap between the spacer and the hub which is the source of vibration. You can read about it here: BMW Wheel Spacers Encyclopedia
This is the best source of information on spacers for BMWs.

So, that is why my car always shake at specific speed. They rotate and balance all 4 tires about every 2 months and still shakes.
How can I get I fix this problem. Do I buy spacers for the front, rear or for each tire and what size.
Please advise I have a 08, 528i.
Thanks
