Goodyear typically does not offer a treadwear warranty on tires designed for OEMs. This is common among most tire manufacturers.

If a tire does come with a pro-rated warranty, it does not necessarily mean it will last longer than one without a warranty.
Just to add, how many times in your life have you used the tire warranty? There are so many requirements before you can make a warranty claim, it just makes it not worth dealing with...

Opposite to that, tire hazard warranty is helpful (especially when you do not pay for it) :)

If/when they put out a 275/65/20 version of this tire, I think it's where I'm going to go. I'm probably about 6k miles away from needing some new ones and am beyond tired of hearing the OE Pirellis howling the whole time.

Any word on what the new OE AT tire will be from Rivian?

Goodyear offers other 275/65R20 options, but I highly recommend the Rivian-specific 275/60R20 Territory AT. Hopefully, Rivian will eventually make it easier to update our vehicles to accommodate new tire sizes. I have a service appointment next week to adjust to the correct 33” OD for the 275/60R20. In reality, they drive great without any software changes. I’ve gotten used to subtracting 3 mph from the speedometer.

The Goodyear Rivian tire is a mix of All Season and All Terrain. I have not heard of a new Rivian OE AT tire. I assume the Gen 2 Pirelli AT is the same as Gen 1, but I am not positive.

I went to America’s tire (AT) yesterday to try and order from them. Apparently they don’t have this particular tire available to them. I showed them on the tire rack website, and even though they own tire rack, they still couldn’t order it. So AT had me order it on tire rack and send it to them. And even though this is a Rivian spec, tire rack reached out to confirm this is what I wanted. I confirmed and they processed payment. Now I’m just waiting for shipping notification. Just sharing my experience with others so in case you go this route, expect some challenges. I hope eventually the tire shops will update their databases to account for this alternate size. I pray that AT will not push back on installation since it’s not currently an OEM spec. Stay tuned ….

Too bad you had to jump through some extra hoops. Hopefully the process becomes easier in the future. Keep us in the loop on how you like them.

They will definitely install this. there are plenty of 275/60/20 tires with 116 load index or higher. AS or AT. That is the requirement for discount tires to install. The good year falls within this category

I know I'm going to buy tires in the next few weeks and I was thinking Michelins, but I'm tempted to go with these goodyears because the price is great. And I don't really believe in mileage guarantees on this kind of EV truck. It all depends on how you drive and if you go off-road etc. Most tires will be replaced "early" on these trucks to my mind.

If I go with the goodyears, I will post an update here.

Well they mounted and balanced the tires to the wheel. The installation they couldn’t do. Apparently with atomic wheels you need a thin spline (thin socket). They didn’t have it so they mounted and balanced the wheels and threw them in the back of my truck bed. I ended up having what I needed to install my wheels and tires. Loving the look of AT on my truck.

Thanks for the recommendation! I feel they should last longer tread wise due to it being ev-drive ready. We’ll see

So is everyones consensus on noise and handling for this tire saying its decent? (I have 22s want to retain handling if I can).
I’m very happy with the noise and handling. Would love to hear what others think.
