All,
One thing that I have found is the 22 Launch Edition came with the 20" all terrain tires. I have found several 23 Launch Editions with 22" all season tires.
My 22 LE came with underbody protection and 22" sport tires, I ordered it that way.

SANZ02,

Efficiency from best to worst
21" and 20" (275/60/20 all season tires) > 22" OEM> 20" OEM AT tires

If you are looking for the most efficient Launch Edition Rivian, and you are in Texas , I would buy one with 20" wheels and dump that AT tires that it comes with then go to this thread below and pick a tire of your choice in size 275/60/20. It will save you money in the long run as well since 20" tires cost half of 22" tires.

LL75,
We live in Tyler. Thank you very much for the information. Gives me more flexibility on the R1T to choose.
