Instead of the wheel spacers I got offset rims that made it about 10 inches wider and way more stable.The rims are also aluminum and look alot better.I found the best deals on E-Bay

I was going to run wheel spacers on my Rhino as well.  But after reading alot of reviews, I decided against it.  Sounds like alot of people are having trouble with the aluminum ones stripping out or not fitting quiet right.  In SideXSide Magazine they have a couple of places that are building the spacers out of steel.  I would go with them instead.  After I went to wider and taller tires with aftermarket rims I decided against the wheel spacer idea.  With 10" tires in the front and 12" tires in the back on aftermarket rims the Rhino is alot more stable in the turns.  Now I'm flat tracking around turns in the sand and dirt instead of looking like the General Lee on two wheels!  Good luck.

I got the SBR rims off e-bay they have 2"+6" offset compared to 5" + 2" stock making them 8" wider in the front . their only $250 and will work with your stock tires. With spacers you have 32 nuts 1 stripped nut can ruin your fun.

  How does your rhino handle with the 2+6 wheels? I have heard some people say that they steer very heavy and wear out wheel bearings faster.
