Here are photos of where it rubs for me, due to my aggressive wheel fitment of 1.5" out. In theory the factory wheels will clear better. Here are some photos on somewhere around "Highest" setting

The Factory Standard height is the lowest this would drive. This is what I drive with on the highway. Conserve on firm suspension settings. 1.88 mi/kWh on the last 88 mile trip. (corrected with 5%) Avg 33 mph. Mostly highway but mixed traffic conditions. Top speeds of about 75mph Climate set to...

Growing up I was told spinach, however too much spinach can cause kidney stones so that would have the opposite effect. In all seriousness... It's nothing new or different from what is already available. I believe the Mountain Pass Performance lift kit is the best version of this. Tricking the...

Yup! you are correct, based on Google gps it was only off 2 mph at 70mph. I guess I was more thinking that maybe RIvian has other factors involved in their calculation. Especially considering the way the navigation adds factors into its range calculation. It is often never an equal comparison...

HERE THEY ARE! Tires: 285/70r20 Toyo AT3 EV Wheels: 20x9 +20mm Quick Notes on Vehicle Mods My Wheels vs Stock 20x8.5 +48 Front aero flap cut on lower bumper Suspension ~1" over factory settings My wheels push the tire out .25" (half wheel width difference) + 1.10" (offset difference)=...

You sound like fun to offroad with. That was a great story/post. Also, I agree with the rock crawl mode and unecessary wheel spin. Rivian engineers think that the computer can do better than a simple locker style engagement, but they are simply wrong. I would rather have my accelerator pedal do...

DCE knew that "tricking" the factory sensors with arms or links just really wasnt the proper way to lift the vehicle and concluded with an engineering beauty. Looks like they did everything right and didn't cut corners. However, there was so much that went into it I think the final retail price...

Toyo makes lots of offroad tire sizes for aftermarket purposes. Also, don't forget this would be a nice tire size for the Ford F150 Lightning EV as well!

I actually love Rally mode for that same purpose. I'm more worried about the all purpose on road limit that lowers the vehicle at 45mph. Basically I'd like to be able to drive the vehicle without larger tires rubbing all the time on road. I've already had my cv axles replaced. My thoughts are...

Got the tires in but I have to sit and stare at them until my tire appointment on Wednesday afternoon. Tire weight comes in at 59.4 lbs (1.6 lb under 61 lb listed spec) I can definitely try to fit it once they're mounted for educational purposes. Bigger issue for me is it's a very inconvenient...

285/70r20 Toyo ATIII EV These are about to go on the R1T. They are 35.7" x 11.5" I've searched yes. Haven't found any Rivians running this size. If you know of anyone please let me know! Previously I have installed 20x10 +12 Beadlocks with low cost and heavy 295/65r20 which were way too wide...

Haha yes I love that video. So theoretically IF I can actually pull the R1T with my 13mpg V8 4runner on dirt, together we are more efficient ?

Yes I understand those parameters. That's the main point of the video. Honestly when you are off-road and a person is stuck and needs assistance no one ever says, "sorry, you exceed my vehicle tow rating I can't help you" In emergency situations people do temporary pulls all the time. The point...

A lot of us have seen the Ben Sullins tow charge video on Youtube where he got 9 miles of range after tow charging for 3 miles on the highway. I am curious if anyone has actually tried this while offroading, and also with a midsize SUV/Truck gas vehicle. (instead of another 900 lb ft torque R1T...

That's good to know! That would definitely help and I'm definitely interested in their final solution. The great thing about GFC (for those who care) is they are manufactured in house in the USA. Do you happen to know what the weight of the GFC camper will be? The Tacoma is listed at 270lbs so...
