My exact configuration and I love it!

Beautiful truck. Best lighting for LA Silver IMHO. The wheels look great - they look like 22s.

Photos like this make me doubt my Red Canyon preference.

Yes 22`s bright. I think they figured out problems with paint. I can't see any striping.

Those 22s do look great. I have the 21s on order, but definitely thinking about a change

I went to the first mile event in South San Francisco. Initially I ordered El Cap + black mountain + 22” darks, but after the event yesterday, I just fell in love with LA silver.

Had my stock 20" wheels powder coated this week. Shop called it 20% black - zero would be matt and going the other direction (towards 100%) would be gloss. Basically a satin black. My last two aftermarket wheels were gunmetal & bronze so black is actually new for me.

Don't have any good pictures yet but stopped for lunch after a ride today and remembered to snap a few pics.

This looks great. I like it better than the black 20's Rivian is selling. What was the cost for this?

I had all 5 wheels powder coated & had them rotate in the spare as I am at about 5,000 miles. Cost was $1,050

Looks great! How long did they have to keep the truck to finish the job? And are there any big variations in price based on the color? I'm planning on mimicking the dark 20s by powdercoating the regular brights with a black translucent chrome, but might consider a bronze tint as well - gotta see it all in person before deciding.

They kept my truck on one of their lifts overnight while they worked on the wheels - all in had it about 36 hours. I do think my shop would have charged more with some other options - they were working on some sort of pearl / translucent white wheels that had been in a few days from what they said, trying to get it to match a wrap. I asked about having the brake calipers powder coated and that is an expensive option - starting at $2,500 plus more to put Rivian or Brembo lettering back on after. I guess I'm learning to like the yellow after all ...

36 hours is amazing!

Hah yup I’m definitely finding it challenging to select a wheel color that works with yellow (calipers, other accents), forest green, black (roof), and chrome trim (lucky R1Ss). There are some shades of darker bronze that seem to work with the yellow but black is a safe bet for sure.

I'm in CO as well, mind if I ask which shop you used? Also, the plastic gunmetal center caps, were those plasti-dipped or painted or something? Congrats!
