Warning about MSW Type 52 wheel bore size

[sagebrush2]

Just posting this in case anyone does a search. I saw another post that said the MSW52 wheel had a bore size of 64.1mm that matches the R1T. The label below says otherwise.

I had my local Discount Tire install MSW Type 52 wheels ordered from TireRack. They would not fit on my 2022 R1T. The guy at TireRack basically called the Discount Tire guys incompetent, and swore up and down that others have gotten it to work. So I brought the wheels back and we tried again, and still didn't fit. I went onto the floor and verified myself that it didn't fit. The MSW Type 52 has a bore size of 64.06mm while the Rivian requires 64.1mm. I don't know if they grinded something down, or used a hammer, or just the tolerances of the wheels or the vehicle made it work for other people. I'm sure someone has gotten them installed, but they didn't work for me.

I ended up getting the EVSportline R800. Almost 2x per wheel, but they actually fit, so it was worth it.

Don't know if this will help you. I had to get these for my wheels.

Mine fit fine on my 23 R1S but it was a bit snug

I was about to order these too. Anyone else have similar luck with the MSW Type 52's?

I got mine online through Tire Rack and installed them myself on my '22 R1T. They fit fine. I've since put 10k on them.

Got mine on Saturday. No issues at all with installation. Fit right onto the hub without a struggle, and no hub centering ring required.

I just had the same experience as the OP with Tire Rack/Discount. Ordered the MSW 52s with tires mounted direct from Tire Rack, shipped to Discount tire. Discount Tire installers said they could not get the wheels to seat properly on the hub and tried more than one of the 4 wheels that were shipped out. Assuming that these ultimately are not compatible for my 2024 R1T. Not sure why so many other people post pictures of these wheels mounted on the R1T -not sure if something has changed with the wheels or not...
