Weird vibration @ high speed

Over 80mph I feel a vibration from the front (I feel it in the steering wheel) as if there was something stuck in the tire tread. The car has only 2200 miles and I have not hit any potholes recently. Just noticed this today. Any ideas?

Thanks

If you think something is stuck in the tread, check the tires. If nothing shows, take it to the dealer for an alignment check. Always try the inexpensive options first.

Just saw that you have 15mm spacers..... might want to get those checked.
