I’ve got a Gen2 Tri Motor with 22” Pirelli All Seasons. Have ~ 6000 miles on them and recently tore a sidewall in my right rear tire.

Replaced the tire - tire wear was so minimal & even, only needed to replace the one!

Not sure if it’s because I drive mostly in all purpose?

It was great on my quad, till I took a 150 mile trip and used sport mode for part of it in 100 degrees in hilly areas. I don't know if alignment is bad in sport mode or of the bad roads overheated the tire. But outside edge of driver side rear is shot. It still has tread, but all sides are worn and it looks like a summer tire now.

I am at 20k and tires were doing great before that. I was expecting 30k out of them. I did the same in cooler conditions and it didn't affect the tires.

I suspect Pirelli's can't take heat, just like their F1 tires. I will need to get alignment checked though.

Coulda saved money with a dual motor ;)
Rivian gave me a 2023 dual R1T loaner. It was a nice truck, but coming from an R1S Quad with such blistering acceleration, let's just say that driving a dual took a bit of gettig used to the rather anemic or adequate get-up-and-go.

10k on my R1SQ Gen 1 with 21" Pirelli Scorpions. I too have driven on AP mode only. My Pirellis had 8/32 fronts and 9/32 rears at 7k miles. Still plenty of tread today.

No complaints, like a lot how they ride. So much so that will buy those again come replacement time.

Is 34 the typical pressure to air down to?
Any factors to consider that determine what that pressure should be? Thanks.
