I’m really enjoying these tires…

It’s a known fact by many Rivian drivers on Reddit and X that these Pirellis aren’t the greatest. You can search yourself and read many posts/comments on this. I rotated these tires 2 times. I don’t floor my Rivian. I drive it normally. My alignment did get checked and it’s fine. All tires had...

“I got the Michelins on my own” I paid $171 to mount and dismount new tires. Road force balance included. The tires I paid way less via Michelin employee discount from a friend.

I got the Michelins on my own. This place was recommended to me. Close to my house. They are EV friendly and knowledgeable. Made an appointment. Took 1 hour. $171 with tax with road force balance. Their lifts are made for EV’s. They know Rivian’s and Teslas. Overall great experience...

Just replaced the Pirellis. They lasted 16k miles. I went with Michelin Defenders now. Much better ride and comfort.

Kit I bought on ebay. $66. Great USA seller and great feedbacks.

BTW this summer hot weather has been brutal in Miami. I went ahead and added the shades. Bought from EVbase. I’m highly satisfied with them. Great quality. Will stay on till late October. It has made a big difference for me. Less AC strain too.

I would add the running boards if I was you. Keep in mind all leases before 30-60 days require an...

I picked up my gen 2 R1S (Aug 2024). I received the Rivian gen 2 all weather mats 1 week before picking up the Rivian. They've been awesome. Great quality. Great fit. Good looks. Easy to wash/clean/dry. I highly recommend them.

Almost 1 year in and 13k miles in. This Rivian is still fun to drive. The best car I’ve owned. Still in my honey moon stage. Amazing how better the Rivian is a year later with updates. I have met many great Rivian drivers who have turned into good friends that I chat with daily. My EV knowledge...

Miami here. You sold these?
