Rivian R1T R1S Don't forget to rotate your tires! PXL_20250822_194533513


Decided to do two swaps at the same time. Putting all season tires on my R1T, and taking the KO2's off my R1T to put on my R1S for this weekend.

The Goat Fabrication rail sliders made it trivial to lift both vehicles. Lifted the entire side on both of them with just my Eagle jack. Stuck a jack stand under one vehicle and just lifted the other.

Planning on going to the Holly Oaks ORV park with some other Rivian owners on Sunday with the tri-motor R1S.

If anyone is curious, I have their night sliders on my R1T, but I probably won't end up needing them.

Serious question, do y'all X-pattern swap them around or just front to back, back to front? Because I see the argument of the AWD swap style, but also, my DMP operates in FWD most of the time...

With a full size spare, I've been doing a rearward cross, swapping in the spare for whatever tire looks lowest instead of a specific location though. Winter tires just get the rearward cross, no spare rotation, since I only have 4 of those.

I tell the shop to do whatever they do normally with a five-tire rotation. I doubt that it matters much.
