Hey guys , im getting a good deal on new black rhino armory wheels 17x9.5 and wanted some first person experience of those of you who have owned them. I love how the wheels look on the JK but wanted to see if they are worth the looks. Have you guys experienced rust on the screws? The fact that it weighs considerably more than other wheels?

A buddy of mine has them on his Jeep. They look awesome. His are super heavy, lug holes are very deep and hard to line up. Those two things make them more difficult to put on when rotating or working on something the requires them to be removed and reinstalled. Other than that he likes them.

As you can see, I have a set on my 2012 JKU. I’ve certainly enjoyed them and the different look they’ve given my rig. However, I’m planning to sell them as I want to go with a different style.

To echo what’s been said, Yes, they are heavy. I believe I read the 17x9.5s like mine are 39lbs each. And, Yes, my experience with them has shown the outer hex-head bolts may rust. To prevent that, I used a rust protecting paint.
