The wheels aren't centered about the hub. EZ to check with a dial indicator.

Default Yes, if the Audi hub bores are too large...

or out of spec, a center bore in spec would have a proper fit. However, I think it's the hub that is small. Try what I said. It's amazing. I have to do my wheels from time to time to get the vibration down. -Pete

Default Think on this..

The wheels are 'centered' in 2 ways, 1.the hub and 2. the lug nuts when <tight>.
If the hub is a problem with other than the OE wheels AND you have a spacer essentially pushing the wheel away from the hub and putting all the stress and "take-up" on the lugs which are not a precision piece of equipment. YOu got several things going on here, non of which are precise.
