If I got 275/55R20 tires, can Rivian recalibrate the Speedo to them?

Early on there were a few reports that Rivian did this. But I don't recall any recent reports. FWIW, from what I have read, neither Ford nor Chevrolet will do a recalibration for non-standard tires either.

FWIW if you are currently running a 33” tire (the 21s or 22s) I wouldn’t worry about recalibrating the speedo, it likely will not be very far off. Going from 34” (OEM 20”) size would be a pretty large difference though.

I know you weren't asking for this advice but a 113 load rating is quite a bit lower than OEM 116. Most big tire shops won't even install them for you. Although 2535lbs is more than 2466lbs (Rear GAWR 4932lbs/2), there isn't a lot of buffer there.
These are the ones I was more looking at, I just want to see if it was possible to go smaller and get the Speedo fixed for it.
