20" Inch Affordable high efficiency 20" wheels and 33" tires options (275/60R20)

[ksurfier]

I do not have specific data, but I have been happy with my range, tire performance and the rugged looks of the Goodyear option.

Congrats to the Teams for bringing a great option to the Rivian...what's more, this EV optimized tire is half the price of the competition...truly impressive work!

How about NVH?

Fire - these should be off by like 3% if we don't recalibrate? I know the number is hanging around somewhere.

In my case the speedo was already off by 2 mph (20" OEM), once I put 33" tires on from 34" OEM tires the speedo was off by 3 mph. On shorter trips the odometer is off by 2.97%, longer trips seem like they are correct - not sure why/how that works...going to drive 80 miles today so will have another data point...

Here's correction factor for different MPK, pretty minimal:

MPK shown	correction	Actual MPK
2.1	0.06	2.04
1.8	0.05	1.75

Thanks - so you apply a factor to lower effeocency. Does that mean you should also lower the speed me tally by 3? If it says you are doing 65 you are really 62?

my odo seems to be 1 mph fast (probably a safety factor). I ignore that and treat it as correct. So I would just subtract 2 from my stated speed?

Yes, I set cruise to 73 and know that I'm only going 70 mph...

Hello, I work on the tire design team at Goodyear that developed the new Goodyear Wrangler Territory AT, which has been optimized specifically for the Rivian R1 Gen 2. I recently purchased a Gen 1 R1T and as you probably can guess, replaced the stock Gen 1 tire (275/65R20) with our new Goodyear Gen 2 tire (275/60R20). Of course, I am biased but I’ve been very happy with both the truck and the tires!

These looks really nice. I wonder why they aren’t shown at all on the Goodyear website and why they are only available on the lowest tier model R1.

That's *kinda* what we all care about.....

Thanks - understanding you do not have data, should this tire vs. the 20AT from first gen be more efficient than the first gen 20AT? I won't hold you or good year responsible. Free information is worth what you pay, but it is a data point and I have to form my own opinion. I am an adult and am responsible for my choices, not you, not goodyear, not rivian.

Yes, the new Goodyear tire is more efficient than the Gen 1 20" AT tire.

How about NVH?

NVH was optimized during the design and I am happy with the results on my truck.

My speedo shows I am going approximately 3% faster than the Waze GPS speed. As mentioned, Rivian is working on a solution for updating to different tire sizes.

The new Goodyear option was just recently released. Here is the link...

Unfortunately, the image shown is currently not the new Rivian tire. I have raised this issue internally with my fellow Goodyear associates. Hopefully it will be addressed soon.

Tire Rack also currently has the tire in stock...

Thank you! This was one of my favorite Goodyear projects to work on in my 25 years and counting with the company. I enjoy working with the Rivian design team. That was a big reason I chose to purchase a R1T!

I put in my 2023 R1S 20” on the Goodyear website and it’s saying it won’t fit my car?

Ironically doesn’t recognize that OEM size yet…
