5mm hubcentric spacers

are there "true" 5mm hubcentric spacers? car nutz in seattle says they don't make them and the smallest size is 10mm. I just got my wheels on with 5mm spacers in the front butit vibrates a bit at freeway speeds.

Btw, I have been religiously reading through this forum and want to thank you guys for all the help installing all my stuff. I just got bi-xenons, clear side markers, full brabus suspension, and 19'' rims installed.

I have also been reading through many posts and almost everyone says that 275's wont fit in the rear without some kind of fender modification..but i think i found a setup that works. In fact, I have considerable room in the rear. I was driving home on the freeway with my stock amg's in the back (2 in trunk and 2 in back seat) and I only rubbed once when I hit a huge bump. I will post pics very, very soon. Thanks again .

Do you really need 5mm spacers to fit the wheels? If you can get by with a 3mm spacer then you don't need them to be hubcentric. The 3mm spacer is not thick enough to cover the part of the hub that the wheel centers on.
