Bumpy Ride with AM's 8" Mecanum wheels?

My team has assembled the 8" mecanum wheels from AM and we are getting a really bumpy ride...

the robot jumps all over the place and nearly shakes itself to pieces.
this happens both in slow speeds and in hugh speeds.

is this a common problem with the 8" wheels?
or maybe we did something wrong?

do the 6" mecanums from AM solve this problem?

thanks!
