Your car looks great on those! You might have lost a wheel weight so the judder could be fixed by balancing the wheels (fronts if it's coming through the steering wheel) - if you're in for alignment, mention it.

I just got the wheels re-balanced and a hunter alignment done. This fixed the issue. Unfortunately i did both at the same time so not sure which of those 2 actually fixed the problem.

Looks really nice, glad the springs have found a happy home.
