With the flat front, Rivians are susceptable to rock chips and other issues. I finally had it done and I am very happy. Entire truck done for $1,000 by Broche here in Sarasota/Bradenton area. (941) 565 2688
Yeah the tire's speed rating neccessitaded the speed limit rating for all Rivians. I dId a 1/4 mile run at 11.5 seconds and the speed limiter kicked in at 200 yards before the finish. Should run 11.2 or 11.3 with no top speed limiter. Speed was 110 MPH, should have been around 115-118 mph...
My first Tesla Wall charger wouldn't charge my Model Y. I quickly bought a second one because I needed to charge at home.
After calling Tesla, several times and several different people, it was finally discovered that the "DIP Switch" inside the unit was set a 8 Amps, not at 48 Amps.
Then I...
On my way back from Arby's, it was dusk, I saw a car pulled over to the side with hazzards flashing. As I approached, I saw something in the road right in front of me, I swerved but was sure I hit it. I immediately did a Uturn, and saw a Sandhill Crane in the opposite line being hit by the...
Yeah, like most, I have my problems, luckily my Rivian isn't one of them!
I am the happy owner of a 2022 R1T with just over 20,000 miles on it. Yes, I have read about everybody's issues, but I have been trouble free with my Rivian VIN xxx004911!
Seems like most threads are about some issue...
I also had the factory 21's with the Pirelli's. I now have a 20" wheel with a 285/60/20 Michelin Defender Platinums mounted. These are super smooth and super quiet, my efficiency dropped at least by 20%.
You guys obviously missed my review. The Costco website shows these tire are "temporarily out of stock" That's because they were just released in November 2023. Not all sizes are available yet, like the popular 275/60/20's.
I just bought a set of 285/60/20's and I'm over the moon happy with...
Yes you described the Defender Platinum that was just released by Michelin. I have just installed a set of 285/60R20 on my truck. Not all sizes are available yet like the 275/60R20's that are on most Rivians.
See my review.
Yes the Defender line has several tires from Michelin, that have been on the market for a while. Check with any Tire supplier and you'll see most of them won't have the "Platinum" in stock.
As I mentioned, this tire has just been released in November 2023, and are not widely available in many...
No callibration needed, as the overall diameter is virtually the same as my OEM Pirelli's, 33.4".
I have a dashcam that is also connected to the GPS satellites up there.
When I do 70 mph on my speedo, my GPS shows I'm doing 69 mph. There is about a 1 mph discrepancy at all speeds over 40 mph, no...
I recently bought a set of EV Sportline 20" wheels. I started looking for a tire that would look good and ride good. I opted for a cheap set of 285/60/20 tires from China, no doubt. Cost me all of about $800, and they looked great!
Come to find they were noisy. I realized that a big knobbly...
