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...
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 have always tinted all my leased cars. 41 now. I have been leasing since I was 21 via our LLC. No issues what so ever. Thats not even a thing BTW. Remember Rivian leases done via CHASE not Rivian. 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...
Just took the Rivian for first tire rotation at Miami SC yesterday. Quick and easy. 7K+ miles in. I love my Gen 2 R1S even more now. Matrix headlights are amazing. Smart turn signals is a huge plus for me. Looking forward to many more new features to come. I just wanted to give y’all an update...
1 month update.
Great Miami SC experience.
Picked up my Gen 2 Aug 2. Submitted some issues. Dropped off Aug 21. Picked up 8/30. They gave me a rental.
Issues fixed:
Middle console USB’s losing power.
Rebalance tires as past 75+ steering wheel will vibrate. They went ahead and put new...
I don’t think it’s horrible. I’ve tweaked some stuff as per this guide. Does sound better. Believe me I hear the difference. I picked up my Gen 2 R1S on Aug 2. Immediately missed the bowers & wilkins on my previous lease that the Rivian replaced. A 2023 XC90 ultimate. That was the best sound...
To reduce cabin heat. Less strain on your AC too. Less UV rays hitting you when you are driving. As you know the majority of the sun rays and heat come via the windshield. I have noticed the difference the ceramic tints do. It’s a big help.
