None now, I've removed them haha! They were sh*tty halfords non hub centric ones just to clear the strut.

There was no strange feeling through the steering, no wobbles or funny noises. I had just pulled away from a roundabout when it happened, I had approximately one second of wobble before the wheel dropped as well as the car.. No grinding! In that second I managed to stop thankfully so that's why there's no damage :innocent:

We're not all perfect and they have been removed.

Update:
The vibration at 60+ mph had disappeared for a few days but has come back while on a spirited drive.. I'm now looking into the front brake discs being warped as that seems the next best port of call :sick:

If the vibration dissappeared when you put your mams wheels on then it can only be a problem with your wheels

The vibration went away for a few days when I took my spacers off too, so I'm not convinced. It doesn't make much sense :confused:

Hopefully your R32 calipers and discs will resolve it for you then :driver:
