I also ran the Blizzak LT last winter and they were great! I didn't notice and range drop from the OE ATs. Costco sells them for a good price and mounts for fee. My local mobile service tech in Vermont also had them, so apparently Rivian likes them too.
I switched my connection to the high level input and I think it sounds a little cleaner. The volume range did drop a lot. So not really sure which input to recommend since they both work fine.
I ran the wire like this. Along the door plastics, under the floor mat, up the exterior of the center console (hidden by the seat), under the center console cover, and below the organizer. It’s not perfect but it was easy to run and it’s surprisingly hard to see any wire.

It will definitely put pressure on it. The speaker has a grill so it will be fine but I was more worried about vibration. The 10” is more than enough. I usually only turn it up to 50%. It feels 10x more powerful than the stock sub.

I found the perfect fitting cargo net for the bed of my R1T! It attaches to the OE be mounting holes. Only $10 on Amazon
I removed the OE covers and bolts, drilled a 1/4" hole in the center of each mount, and reinstalled them with M6-1 x 30mm bolts and the OE spacers.

I joined the club. I only drove a little bit but they are very comfortable and quiet so far! Not sure about range but that is second to comfort for me. My Scorpions only had 15k miles on them but were very loud and a rougher ride.
