Shimmy after lowering?

Has anyone else had a shimmy, when accelerating from a stop, after lowering with Goldlines?

We did an alignment after we installed them, and we are planning to recheck the alignment next week (becuse the springs should have settled). This shimmy was there on our first test drive and has not gone away, or got worse.

It only last for a second but it is verry noticeable, and I hope it will go away after we re align It.

Can any body confirm this?

Did you remove and then remount the wheels CORRECTLY?? A speck of rust between the wheel and hub, will make a big difference.

Did you remove the OEM rings on the wheel studs? The guys at discounted wheel warehouse took mine off because they said that it would cause wheel vibration.
