Advice on tires requested

[Donald Stanfield]

Do you notice any changes in how the vehicle/ steering feels? What about the overall range? Any significant decrease in range?

Those are difficult questions to answer because originally I had the 21's and bought a set of 22" rims and put the michelins on so I never ran the stock 22's on my truck. Yes there is a range loss compared to the 21's for sure. I was getting about 1.8 on my return trip going 75 with a couch in the bed so aero was hit by the couch too on my recent trip. For my day to day use its not noticeable.

The Michelin's handle better than the stock 21's but that might be a function of the rims more than anything else.

EV Ready I believe in Michelin's view is the rubber they use the make the tires which is "tougher" to handle EV demands. You don't have to get a tire that is "EV Ready" for your EV/Rivian.

The 21" option is rumored to come out July 2024.

I am unaware of ANY fine print on ANY tire that says if you use tire on EV, they will not honor the warranty.

I am far away from any tire expert, just have done a lot of market research and read a lot on the forums to stay educated.

Thank you so much for the additional information!!
