I think it's a bit more than that, because they do focus on EV tires and are recommending these specifically for EVs. Tesla drivers have had good things to say about them too. That said I don't see the R5 in the 20" size that they are claiming.

Looks like Nokian added some Rivian specific details to their site including recommended winter tires for all 3 wheel sizes. Given their experience already with EV tires, these should be a good bet. https://www.nokiantires.com/rivian/

Kind of jumping the gun assuming the whole pack is bad? I haven’t heard of that happening yet.

Scary, and don’t let an electrician convince you to use 6 AWG Romex wire if you want to charge at 48 amps. 8 out of 10 licensed electricians agree, I got one of the other 2.

I’m pretty sure anyone can order these from the gear shop right now? https://rivian.com/gear-shop/p/20-in-all-terrain-wheel-and-tire-set

Maybe but these guys seem to be able to ship anywhere in the US. I plan to order these when I get my S (supposedly in next 10 weeks)

Is there any reason these Nokians wouldn’t work?

Especially seeing how much room there is behind the third row, it’s gotta be 6 more inches than my Pilot has.

I can only guess they are trying to push as many out the door by end of quarter as possible. Some of those fitment gaps are pretty bad.

If you haven’t realized it yet, you will be an early adopter if you take delivery now. These things are expected and if you aren’t ready for that please postpone so a willing early adopter can gladly take the vehicle. We will all thank you!

SO for those who ordered early, if we go with Limestone and black wheels we can't get the tax credit because it exceeds 80k right?

So Dr. Mario got the same job already done for 4k? Did they replace the whole panel? Sounds like you are being taken for a ride, the shop probably has no idea how to estimate labor on this?

Winter tires on the 22s would be much better than the ATs on the 20s. Nokian recommends a specific winter tire for the Rivian 22s: “ RIVIAN R1S/R1T Nokian Tyres Hakkapeliitta 10 SUV 275/50 R 22 Nokian Tyres Hakkapeliitta R5 SUV 275/50 R 22” https://www.nokiantires.com/tires/electric-cars/

How far are you from a SC? This may have been shipped to his local SC and someone else backed out.

Yes, it’s a setting whether to turn on only in dark or always. I prefer always so no one backs into the charger when parking.

Evidently 6awg Romex is not to code when pulling 48 amps continuous on a 60 amp breaker. Even though my electrician used it! Now I had to downgrade the charger to only pull 40 amps.

Ha yea I could, it has a glass shade that wasn’t on in the phot

The Vermont cabin install, had to run 30-40 ft underground. Now I just need my R1S.

Phantom drain - something that isn't factored into the charging cost or carbon footprint of EVs. As someone who will do mostly weekend trip, my R1S will sit idle in the driveway midweek and could lose half of it's charge just sitting there? Anyways i'm sure they will continue to improve it...

That's interesting, the second row look a bit tight for a 6' person in his video, and Rivian customer service told me the leg room is the same as the R1T but that was months ago so maybe they didn't really know for sure. Glad to hear there is a couple more inches in the S, as my oldest is 13...
