I COULDN'T AGREE MORE! That grab handle is huge quality miss for Rivian, and it's my biggest gripe since day one. It's something you touch every day, and it's absolutely not commensurate to price point of the vehicle.
Well, according to Tirerack, the stock Pirelli in 275 55 21 are 37 lbs each vs newly available Michelin at 41 lbs each. If Pirelli lowers their price at or below the Michelin, I will stick with the Pirelli. Lighter, and more traction than the Michelin, albeit being work out at 30-35k miles
I'm going in for a service appointment at the end of the month as my tocking sound and creaking from the front suspension have become embarrassingly loud... Richmond SC and Rivian customer support keep correcting to "ticking sound" when they reply to me ...I asked them to check my front subframe...
Coming to the end of life on my factory set of the 21 inch Pirellis. Wondering if anyone has leads on better pricing than Tirerack? I'm aware of the $100 Pirelli promotion.
Thank you!
Got you. Since you said fingers crossed, I thought it might be sooner than the July timeframe you mentioned
Welp,
I'm at 28k now and close to the wear bars. I don't think I'll make it till September...
Well, according to Lee from Tire rack, they have had Michelin LTX MS2 275 55 21 for sale back in December 2023 @$400 per tire. Lee said the tirerack has bunch on back order with expected delivery of July 2024 @$364 per tire. I asked Lee to verify this two times over, he was annoyed that I didn't...
Does anyone have an update on the release date for the Michelin 21" tire? My local Costco and tire shops can't even see this tire in their databases...
Dang! That's an incredible deal @$220 a piece!
I just did my tire rotation, I'm at 22500 miles on my originals and can safely get another 5k from them.
So If I buy these OEM Pirellis at @$220, it will cost me about $1000 with install for another 27k miles of wear. Or I wait for the LTXs that...
Yes, I have the stupid sloshing water sounds after rain on passenger side doors. I thought I was going crazy hearing the sloshing water sounds and looking for water bottles under the seats.
I'm not too terribly worried about it, it goes away. "Glad" others have it too..
Lots to love about Jason Cammisas video. Obviously him and Randy are the pros and high praise coming from them means a lot.
I'm very impressed with the steering and strength of the body panels. And it absolutely left the R1T for dead!
Now if it didn't look like the way it did, and crated by...
Yep, fairly bored at the moment...just noticed the Rivian app displaying a v-shape like pattern tire tread...New tires coming up? Purely speculating, and mostly instigating tire rumors...
I have the 21s.
