I had a set of XT/Rhyno Lites with less thread showing. After less than a year the barrel seperated from the head of a couple nipples.

Remove the rim strip or tape and inspect how far the spokes go into the nipples. If the spokes aren't long enough to get to the heads of the nipples, take the wheel back to the LBS.
