What did the spacer look when you took the wheel off? You'd have noticed immediately if it was messed up.

Improper parking brake adjustment could cause the whole car to shake. If it was adjusted too tight the rear parking brake shoes will always make contact and once get overheated it will cause nasty shimmy/vibration like symptoms.
