Black rhino rims anyone??

usaf2006 · Feb 4, 2017

Anyone ever own a set? Found these on ebay. They're new. All 4 for $341 plus $99 shipping, so $441 total. They're 18x9 with 0 offset.

Just wondering if anyone has had experience with Black Rhino rims.

usaf2006 · Feb 4, 2017

A ha. Found out why they're cheap. They're discontinued.

Wonder how easy it is to find lug nuts for them... Any idea?

Hmm they are pretty clean too.

Brand new. They're just discontinued, hence the big sale. I dog the machined and black contrast.

If you zoom in, the lugs look conical, just can't tell if they're big enough to fit stock lugs.. Probably not. But hey, they look sweet.

Side note, Wal-Mart has 37/12.50r18 federal couragias for $167 lol.

Everything else in 18" rims is expensive tho... That's my only reservation with these.

Any tire shop can hook you up with the right lugs.

I like the look.

Good luck with your decision.

I have a set of black rhino's on my truck. It's a quality wheel. What style did you buy, I don't see any pics

usaf2006 · Feb 4, 2017

The link is the word "these" in the first post. Haven't bought yet.

Eestee70 · Feb 4, 2017

Nice looking wheel, black rhino's are easy to keep clean too. Post some pics of your truck if you purchase

usaf2006 · Feb 4, 2017

Will do. I'm just worried I'm not getting enough offset to go for 12.5" wide tires since they're 0 offset and 0" wide.

Eestee70 · Feb 4, 2017

you probably wouldn't like the look of a 12.5 inch wide tire on a 9 inch wide wheel. I would do a minimum of a 10 inch wide wheel.

usaf2006 · Feb 4, 2017

I'm fine with a stuffed looking tire. As long as they fit lol

blackbeautyhemi · Feb 5, 2017

My fuels are 9" wide and they look fine with my wider than 12.5 nittos. Those are def a good looking wheel, especially for the price.

usaf2006 · Feb 5, 2017

What offset do you have?

I had a set on my 2001 Silverado. Good wheel. The crew at RVM (Big wheels NYC) are good guys. I've bought 5 sets from them. They had to drill and press the set to fit my Chebby.

Those look nice. Were they lightweight? I read somewhere that they are a pretty light wheel.

I'm assuming they took aftermarket lug nuts too.

Thanks, I liked the look. Especially considering cost. They were lighter than the American Racing set I took off. They accepted my spline drive lugs just fine as well. Again, RVM had to drill and sleeve the wheel for my Chevy.

Part of why they are less expensive is because they buy blanks and can drill both hub bore and lug bore on a CNC mill. It takes out some of the factory costs. But these Rhinos do come predrilled. I also towed my 21' camper with them.

Awesome deal. Thanks for the info.

12.5 inch wide tires look perfectly fine on 9" wide wheels. They look like truck tires lol. Plus the skinnier wheel will be lighter, and if you ever do any off roading, you will be very happy to have that extra tire sticking off of the wheel to protect it.

Honestly not sure on the offset, I know they're 5" backspacing tho cause that's what rough country recommended with the lift and I didn't want them sticking out real bad and chewing up my paint.

Edit: found my invoice for the wheels, their a +1mm offset.

Those look good for the price for sure! 0 offset will work with 12.5" tires. Stock 20" wheels are +19 offset and you could run 12.5" wheels with just a 1/4 spacer. So having 0 offset that brings the wheel out about 3/4" and it will clear the upper control arms!

Black rhino rims anyone??
