Did you tighten the spacers to the hub first using the original studs on the hub?

You might want to check the OEM studs again. Even if one is slightly bent the wheel will wobble

are you sure there is enough space between the lug holes for the extra length of the OEM studs that stick past the spacer? This would prevent the wheel from mating properly with the spacer and cause the wobbling

Could be a broken stud if you saw it wobble when driving.

If not, tighten everything down. Make sure you don't overtorque the spacers on.

i mean if the wheels wobble.. there is virtually ONE solution.. you tighten them more (obviously not over tighten)
