Wheels Branch is MSR 087 .... Because when I have 8.5 my steering wheel is wobble and vibrate very bad and sometime I feel that the tire is touching the fender .... and this MSR rims doesn't make 8.5 they come only in 20x7.5

My wheel shop (Duron Tires) is right there.

2nd set looks way better but 7.5" wide is way to small for the rear and front. did you have hub centric rings on the 1st set of wheels.
