5mm spacer question????

Does anybody know what is the best 5mm spacer to buy that does not cause any wheel vibration? I'm looking for a good quality spacer.

do not use them, i used 5mm on the front because i wanted 12mm on the rear and the bolts were silver. so i put the 5's on the front, there were no vibrations or any ill effects even at high speeds. but they are such a pain in the ass and not worth it you will not notice a difference with or without a 5mm spacer.

5mm is so small it's not worth bothering with.
