Black rhino armory wheels stick out?

[Paulocon]

Anyone running these wheels and have pictures that show how much these stick out?

I ordered some but feel like it might give a rock crawler stance.. I do prefer tires closer to the fender line.

Pictures would help!

What model wrangler do you have? What's the width and back space/offset of the wheels?

I have a 2020 Jeep Wrangler jlur

it’s a 17x19.5 4.25bs with a -18 offset

it’s wrapped on bfg 37inch km3

Here's a pic of my Rubi with 38x13.50 tires wrapped around 17x9 wheels with -12 offset and 4.53" back space. Your outer wheel edge would be roughly 3/4" further out than mine.

So sorry I can’t see the photo.

I accidently hit the post button instead of attach. It's there now

Funny thing about negative offset is it looks progressively less stuck out the higher the lift. My 5 in backspaced, 0mm offset look pretty close to @Headbarcode's -12 since I am still on my stock Rubicon suspension. Sure Its just a trick of the eye, but something to consider none the less.

Honestly, with my Metalcloak 2.5" Gamechanger lift on the way, I'm really wishing I had purchased the -18 offset version of this same wheel for the very reason I just described.

Great point! I hadn't even thought about that. Now I'm curious.

I'll have to take some comparison shots after I bump up to the 3.5" Gamechanger.

IMO a -18 offset on a Rubicon is way to much, stock wheel +44 and going to a -18 will really push the tire outside the envelope. Hard on all components. Some people love the look but in a lot os states it is way ouside what is legal.

By the way, I love the look of the wheel and if they made a 17X8.5 with a +25 offset like AEV JL wheels I would jump on them.

Black rhino Barstow 17x9.5 -18. I have a sport so yours will stick out a hair less.

Be careful of Black Rhino counterfeits, they just busted a whole warehouse full of them in the Philippines and apparently there are many others out there still.

Looks like they have a +30 offset option:

Good call out @df007. Came in here to say that.

Compared to the stock wheels, the 17x8 ET+30 would sit just over 3/4" further out towards the fender.

I've been eyeing up these or the Arsenal wheels. Does anyone have any experience on if these play well with the rear camera. The wheels seem to have a center cap that covers the lug holes. I'd imagine you can't run that on the spare tire carrier with the camera.
