Is anyone running Black Rhino Arsenal rims with stock tire sizes (275/70/18)? Not certain these will fill without some kind of spacer. These are some beefy wheels. Not a fan of the black spoke-type aftermarket wheels and these look good to me.

The 18x9.5 with the +12 offset should work well. I agree they look awesome and I thought seriously about them myself. I ultimately went with Method 704 HDs because I liked the beadgrip feature and the additional load rating (though the Black Rhinos still cover the xle rating so should be plenty strong).

No bueno on stock (275/70/18) tires. Wheel is 9.5" stock tires will fit a 7"-8.5" wheel.
A. So if you want to use this wheel, you can't use stock size tires.
B. If you want to use this wheel with tires up to 35s or close equivalent at 11.5ish wide, as @BikePilot mentioned, yes go for it, +12, no spacer needed.

Sorry for answering both ways but your (fill) made me wonder if you meant will the bead seat (no)
I also went with 18" Arsenals but with the -18 offset and 34.8"x11.3"x18" tires (285/75/18 Falkens)

Edit to add: the 295/65/18 shown in recommended tire size photo above is 33.1"x11.8"x18 in a Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac

Yeah that's a good point, I was focused on the spacer thing and the wheel fitting the truck. It's a half in wider than what you really want for that little stock tire. I think it's still be fine. The real answer is 37x13.50s though :).

Thanks guys. Had a typo in original post and should have said fit vs fill. Just replaced the stock Firestone tires with same size Nittos terra grapplers so I’ll need to find another wheel that fits. Unfortunate as these Rhino wheels look damn good.

But wait there's more! If you have the Nitto Terra Grappler G2 in size 275/70/18 you are good to go.
