Car has crazy vibration ..
I do have aftermarket Rays Gram Lights 57 Extremes but they don’t use or didn’t come with rings , just centered by lugs
Constant vibe like that could be the wheel jittering because the lugs are loose, since you can't get a flush fit. Might be poor quality part installed?
Either way, I'd be careful your lugs aren't working their way loose as you drive.

The rotors are fitting fine, its the wheels. I'm suspecting newb wheel installing error. Hopefully the stud threads aren't damaged from the wheels flopping around while driving.

Are the rotors fully seated to hub? I like reusing the rotor screws just so rotor stays put when doing brake work.
On a normal wheel pull and replace, (like say, tire rotation), the pads are tight to rotor and hold it in place.
You put in new pads and rotors, so pads weren't tight to rotor to hold it in place. Did rotor maybe move out of place as you put the wheels on?
Normally seating lugs (while wheel still unweighted) would push rotor back into place and all is well. But maybe those aftermarket rotors contributed to this not happening.
I bought stainless steel Honda rotor screws on Amazon, so I could put them back in place and not worry about them rusting in place like stock ones do. I find having rotor screws in place makes putting wheel back on much easier (and much easier to not bang wheel against caliper in the process) if rotor is held firmly in place.

Believe I found the problem , wheels are sitting completely flush now to the hub but I’ve only done one side . The problem I believe was the screws that hold the rotor in place where up against the whee keeping it from getting a flat seal . Wheel do the rest of the wheels the same and sees what happened . If I go for a test drive and I’m still getting this shake/vibrate I will give detailed pictures of everything including suspension components because this may be another issue but let’s hope the issue was just the rotor screws . Also , not having them in is safe right ? Being the wheel keeps the rotor snug ?
Good News Guys , The rotor screws were the Problem . For some reason the rears the screws fit properly but the front rotors they couldn’t go in all the way . So I just removed them all the way around . Been driving all evening , what a sigh of relief . Thanks for all the help guys !
