I say RINE-hart, but then I know people with the surname.

This might not be right, but I pronounce these RAYN (as in Reindeer) and RIHN-hart or RAYNhart. I like Reiner best though, when pronounced RAY-ner. English pronunciation is very inconsistent though, so REEN and REENhart would make sense too. English is the most messed up language in the world, I swear lol. I feel sorry for anyone who has to learn it as a foreigner.
