Already several prior "wheels" posts in this forum, but I'll play along.....

20x9 with 18mm offset and 275/60/20 Pirelli All-Terrain (one series smaller than stock, but same tread pattern as stock All-Terrains)

How do you think the wheels would do with stock tire size? I'm looking at Method wheels which are also 20x9, and wondering if it'd rub.

It's about the offset. With the 18MM offset and stock sized tires, they would rub ever so slightly over very heavy dips in the road where the suspension compresses the most.

For me personally, I prefer the look of a 33 inch tire on this truck over the stock 34's, which, in my own personal opinion, are too big for the proportions of the truck. Rivian's stock 21's and 22's have 33 inch tires.

Also, the tires I have are identical to the stock All-Terrain tires, yet are $250 each. The only thing missing is the "RIV" stamp on them. They ride the same. Sound the same. Provide the same range. And they look the same. Yet are at least $150 cheaper than the "RIV" branded tire.

I personally love the look of the 18mm offset wheel on this truck. 20mm would look just as good. That 2 mm would be enough to prevent the tires from rubbing with the stock tire size. The only problem is that many of the 20mm offset wheels out there won't clear the calipers. There are some that will, but be sure to do your homework to ensure that they'll fit. As far as I know, 18mm offset wheels should all fit just fine.

Hope that helps

Here's a link to my prior lengthy post with all the details and things I went through in deciding on which size wheels and tires to go with. This set on the truck is my 5th set of wheels and tires and the one's I'm sticking with.

I’m planning to buy the Michelin Defender LTX M/S2 tires in 275/60/20 to match my stock 21” specs and avoid reprogramming.

Not sure if anyone shared these.. but here are two R1S from this year's SEMA. Shows two unique 'styles' that you can take your Rivian. Unfortunately, I have no further information on the wheels or tires but judging by the stickers, the blue one has wheels made by Vossen and the other by DCE. 🤷‍♂️ :confused:
