Thinking hard about this wheel with Toyo Open Country R/T Trail tires in 35x12.5x17
Wheel is a Black Rhino Arsenal in black, 17x9.5, -18 offset with a 4.5" backspacing.
Pictured below. If anyone has seen these or has these on an E-series I'd love to see it.
I am pretty sure that forum member rizzabove had these wheels or something similar to these on his build before doing his U-Joint 4x4 Conversion. I had also debated these wheels early on in my build before ultimately deciding on Methods.
This is rizzabove's van when it was 2WD with the Black Rhino wheels.

Yes, those are the same manufacturer but different wheel. Almost the same name though and very similar. Those are Abrams or something military sounding and the ones I'm probably going for are Arsenal. Military looking wheels with military sounding names though all the same.
EDIT: Finally found the post another member contributed (The Vermonster) which may help others understand Wheel "off-set" better with this visual diagram he kindly provided:
I guess I forgot to post this. I did indeed end up going with Black Rhino Arsenals and Toyo Open Country R/T's a few months back. Not too many miles on them yet though.
Specs: Black Rhino Arsenal 17x9.5 -18mm offset, 4.5” back spacing
tires are 35x12.5x17
Sitting on Quigley/RIP and front trimming of pinch weld and Bushwacker was necessary.
