  1. Tire wear - how are your OEM Pirelli's or other brand holding up?

    2022 R1T quad. Driven entirely in all purpose, low suspension. 21” OEMs wore out at 16.5K - ~3mm all around. Replaced with 20” rim and Michelin Defenders. Much quieter, less precise in handling, less efficient. Will have to see how they wear (~700 miles so far).
  2. 20" MSW Wheel w/ Michelin X-ICE Installation Experience

    Thanks for the response. The efficiency is very erratic - more finicky than with the Pirelli. Doesn't appear to stabilize even after the battery and other components have warmed up. Will have to try a longer road trip and see if the tradeoff for more tire options was worth it.
  3. 20" MSW Wheel w/ Michelin X-ICE Installation Experience

    @Indy avocado what’s your efficiency been with this setup? I just made this exact switch and saw my efficiency drop tremendously. From avg 2.3mi/kWh to 1.8 mi/kWh, roughly.
  4. Discount tire will match Amazon price for 21” Pirelli tire for Rivian

    Pirelli 275/55R21 116H XL PIRELLI SCORPION VERDE AS RIV BW https://a.co/d/4hOXzzU Use the “Found it Lower” link on the Discount Tire page that shows the tire details. Currently $392 on Amazon.
  5. Dashboard Rattle - VIDEO, is this normal?

    I believe they used some sort of double sided tape to correct this in my T. Things were quiet briefly but the heat in Phoenix undid the fix so it is back on my list for re-repair. Hopefully Rivian has a more robust solution they can apply next time.
  6. Rivian dash rattle

    I had (and continue to have a little bit) of the same problem. Same resolution as @Lil'Dave but mine still has a little rattle depending on the road surface. Will have to press all around to see if a clip isn't in place.
  7. Wrist Band Key Delivery?

    I just got my wristband key when I picked up my truck from a service appointment.
  8. Arizona pre-orders

    I had a full front PPF, ceramic coat and tinting done. Window tint has bubbles ?. The PPF isn't fully wrapped (specifically the flat front between headlights) with about 1/8” to 1/4” of panel still exposed on edges (maybe that is normal?).
  9. Arizona pre-orders

    @AZ_Rivian if you could, please let me know your experience there. Just got my truck back and clearly either I do not understand what “fully wrapped” and “you wont be able to tell its there” mean or the job was done poorly. For a detailer, they do not appear to pay attention to detail (not to...
  10. Arizona pre-orders

    Have found the AC to be a bit weak - hoping tint will help. Also found the vehicle to be more efficient on the highway than during street driving. I can’t tell yet whether that is the norm or due to the heat and better cooling at speed.
  11. Arizona pre-orders

    Nice! My truck is there now for the same.
  12. [New Email] Rivian offering discounted XPEL PPF to existing owners

    Got a call from an Xpel installer today and they confirmed the same about the wrapped edges. They also said the Rivian deal does not include lights… If I’m concerned about the front, I figure lights are included in that concern. Also, not having edges wrapped means you can tell where the film is...
  13. [New Email] Rivian offering discounted XPEL PPF to existing owners

    No responses/contact received, yet. Maybe they underestimated the level of interest this would generate?
  14. Limestone next to Subaru's light blue

    To me the limestone color has the slightest of blue hue but is certainly much more grey. As its been described before, a chameleon depending on the lighting. Overall, definitely what I had hoped for.
  15. April - May 2022 Delivery Club/Hype Thread

    Got mine last week after switching to a non-LE version of my config from the R1 store. Can’t wait to take it on a trip.
