Are they Minilites? Or Minilite copies? Some of the copies I've seen in the UK
are incredibly badly machined and don't seat properly on the hub. So they don't
sit flat on the hub and/or don't centre properly
Also some have bolt holes machined to different depths so some sleeve nuts (if
that's what you have) may bottom out on the wheel without touching the wheel
If the vibration started when the wheels were fitted, look long & hard at the
wheels
