Mine sounds exactly the same, at the exact same speeds (ie peaks at 35mph). I also have PDM Max. I decided not to worry about it until the car actually gives me a warning.
I’m almost certain the Toyos will be an efficiency/off-road performance tradeoff winner. The data point is super necessary for the Rivian community. For me personally, I’m very much in love with the AT4Ws on my first 150 miles. The efficiency is still dead on 2.3mi/kwh with my “at the speed...
I was already scared of microwaves and now I should be scared of driving my Rivian? Ugh. Also 60% with cancer? Ugh #2. This thread is super depressing.
It’s about sidewall, not just about weight. You are saying the weight rating is overkill which is true, but it coincides with sidewall construction and whether that’s overkill is indeed subjective to the use case. So I wouldn’t generalize whether a 116 tire is better for the R1T because it...
Very good point, I used an online calculator… I wasn’t planning on keeping them at 49 psi but go up to 65 psi as that seems to be the consensus on this forum for helping negate range impact!
The chart I used stated the following for LT275/65/20:

I’m sorry - but this is misleading and only partially true. You are making a statement based on your 116 load rating experience in the Rivian ans comparing it to E load in a different vehicle, which is not apples to apples at all. Beyond load rating, a lot of factors change the ride comfort and...
No such thing as stupid questions. That’s what this forum is for.
My original tires are the 20” Pirelli AT tires on 20” OEM rims. My lifetime efficiency is 2.38mi/kwh on those. On your second question: I bought the Falken tires in the exact stock size (275/65/20), just a higher load rating...
I fully agree - 14 miles is not sufficient of a sample at all. I do believe that in the long run it’s probably gonna hone in between 5-8% range loss, which is totally acceptable to me considering the benefits of these tires. So far I have 0 drone at speeds 10-70mph. They’re way more composed in...
ok just a small update here from my first drive to work today morning: 2.26mi/kWh, which is about ~4.5% drop from my usual efficiency on that drive. So far, not bad at all co side ring all the benefits this tire has.
I would say the best way to describe the change in ride comfort over the...
Added some better socks to the car to continue the build: https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/threads/falken-wildpeak-at4w%E2%80%99s-installed-in-lt275-65-20.31194/
After much deliberation and only 5K miles in my stock AT pirellis, I decided to double down on my overland build and get my rig some more off-road prowess.
Studying all the different threads on here it became clear that choosing new tires was not going to be an easy task. There is simply no...
