That's a Black Rhino logo on the wheels, but the wheels and tires look photoshopped in to me.Curious, what wheels are those? They look fantastic.

Ive never seen those Black Rhino wheels for a Sprinter fitment that is why I asked.....That's a Black Rhino logo on the wheels, but the wheels and tires look photoshopped in to me.
They are real wheels. They come in 38 and 52mm offset. I know this because I'm considering them for my van.Ive never seen those Black Rhino wheels for a Sprinter fitment that is why I asked.....
Looks like the traction boards got some use!Tetons and Yellowstone last week. Yellowstone is my favorite NP so far with its history, topography, fishing and wildlife. Unfortunately, our YNP trip was cut short due to the flood damages. I did, however, get to spend a rainy afternoon fishing the Firehole river over the weekend. White Miller caddis was a hit. I'm excited to return and fish the Madison river sometime soon. For now, we'll creep our way to Glacier NP.

They did! Private spot on a giant hilltop after several days of rain. Muddy clay and my then lack of knowing how to disable traction control did not mix well. Well, that and the van sliding downhill. The boards got us out though! $100 well spent.Looks like the traction boards got some use!
Can you link me to the kit you used?Air Lift 5000 air bags. 1 1/4 over stock height at 50 psi and the ride defiantly improved. I'm still interested in the MB lift block but am struggling to find the specific part number - without it my local parts guy is useless.
Easy install as well. But after cutting in windows every job has been easy ha!
How do you like the hidden winch mount?Tetons and Yellowstone last week. Yellowstone is my favorite NP so far with its history, topography, fishing and wildlife.

We love it! One of our favorite exterior modifications. Extremely well built and bolted right up after some bumper cover trimming and cutting down the tow hook adapter. I’ve used the winch once to pull out a stuck farm truck and it held up great. I trust it.How do you like the hidden winch mount?
Who made the roof rack? looks really cool. thxWe love it! One of our favorite exterior modifications.

It’s called the airliner by Tourig. I would recommend it. I needed it so that the fan when open can clear the bottom of the tent. I still can’t open it totally but it’s adequate for ventilation as is.Who made the roof rack? looks really cool. thx
I had same problem recently on my original Vanco tires on my 2020. My inside half wear was much more severe than yours even and the outside half was like new. I had to replace after 15,000 miles. I had it aligned around 8,000 miles and drove fine so don't know the cause.randomly noticed my front tires are wearing oddly, down to the belt on the inboard side of both tires. Went through our photos and the tires seem fine on June 4. I actually posted that photo here from our trip to Yellowstone.
Odd. I have about 15k on this set too. The sprinter tech at Mercedes said it’s probably because of all the weight I added in building it out, but I just can’t imagine that alone would throw off the geometry so badly to cause this.I had same problem recently on my original Vanco tires on my 2020.
