  2. New Michelin Defender LTX M/S2 coming soon

    I'm going to order and install them as soon as they are available. Hopefully Oct 1st!
  3. Do you think EVs are eventually going to hurt exotic car brands?

    I think there may be a wave of new people getting into speciality EV cars. ICE exotic and sports cars attract people with noises, vibration, and stuff like that. But some people don't really care for that. I would like to have a small zippy sports car, but I hate the noises they make (yes, I...
  4. How has the 2023.34.0 Update changed the ride of your Rivian? [Vote in poll]

    Very noticeable improvement on R1S. I understand why someone may not like this suspension tuning but I think it's quite brilliant for an SUV. Thank you Rivian!
  5. Cost of Wheels without Tires

    I got the same price ($2996) but rounded up :P I got the rims, but haven't put them on yet. I'm hoping to get new Michelin Defender LTX M/S2 tires in 275/60R20 as soon as they're available this October. I think that's going to be one of the best tire choices for Rivian unless you're into real...
  6. 22" Michelin Tires @ Costco for under $2K installed (compatible with Rivian 22" factory wheels)

    Tire information is already available on the Michelin website. 119S rating confirmed! https://www.michelinman.com/auto/tires/michelin-defender-ltx-m-s2?tyreSize=22
  7. Lifted Rivian R1T on lift kit and 38s!! + Drag Race vs. Ram TRX

    The key here is "by American standards". For whatever reason we decided to engage in the arms race in this country to have the biggest and most effective pedestrian killer car possible but I feel like I'd be screaming into the void on this forum so I digress.
  8. Lifted Rivian R1T on lift kit and 38s!! + Drag Race vs. Ram TRX

    I disagree. To each their own only applies if you're not actively impacting other people safety. Abominations like that is a road hazard. Rivian is already a huge vehicle with limited visibility. Those modification make it a perfect pedestrian, dog and child killing machine. And a pretty...
  9. 22" Michelin Tires @ Costco for under $2K installed (compatible with Rivian 22" factory wheels)

    Those are probably the new Defender LTX M/S2 tires. They should come in 275/50R22 size with 119S load rating. Available s00n at $500. That's actually very exciting! I'm planning to put 275/60R20 tires on my R1S. They have 116H load rating, so big box stores should be able to install them.
  10. Cost of Wheels without Tires

    Another data point. Got quote from Bellevue SC for AT darks. $3k for the wheels, $140 for center caps and $323 for TPMS. Seems consistent with other quotes from Bellevue but higher than some other SCs. I ended up buying them. I think buying dark wheels separately is still a better deal than...
  11. Anyone Tinting Just the Front Windows on an R1S?

    I did XPEL PRIME XR UV on front windows and windshield. 20 on windows and 70 on the windshield. 20 matches factory tint perfectly in my opinion. 70 is barely noticeable visually. It didn't get too hot since we tinted it but on 85 degree day it was nice and cool inside with AC running on speed 1.
  12. Miles on odometer at delivery / pickup? Mileage thread

    I got mine with 26 miles. I was waiting for it to arrive to my SC from the factory.
  13. New Michelin Defender LTX M/S2 coming soon

    Isn't just a regular LTX? The new tire is Defender LTX M/S2! :) I really hope that Defender LTX M/S2 will have 116 load rating in 275/60/R20. That's going to be a bomb!
  14. R1S Shop access live with lots of inventory!

    Got the same message last night! VIN 157XX from the shop.
  15. latest VIN for R1S

    It depends on the tire size! If you go with the stock size 275/65/20 for AS you don't have to do anything because the size is exactly the same as AT tire. If range is the absolute top priority, you can go with a 275/60/20 tire. Overall size is going to be the same as 21, just less wheel and...
  16. latest VIN for R1S

    Thank you! Both me and my wife absolutely in love with compass yellow. Rivian did such an amazing job with colors. They are all really vibrant and look stunning. Arguably best colors on the market of any manufacturer. I changed my pre-order more times than I could count. I'm thinking about...
  17. latest VIN for R1S

    Unfortunately the wheels are not exactly what I wanted but hey, at least the delivery is almost 1 year faster than promised! Going to order 20" dark wheels as soon as the customer service opens on Monday. Going for a full bumble bee look ?
  18. latest VIN for R1S

    Another datapoint. I just picked one from the shop yesterday! Compass yellow R1S. VIN 157XX. It must be a really recent build.
  19. R1S Shop access live with lots of inventory!

    How do you know if shop access is denied or approved? We finally managed to request one on Friday over the phone. Didn't get any communication from Rivian yet one way or the other. Nov 11 preorder in Seattle area.
