Those look like the new factory aero wheels. It's probably a lot lighter, too. Can't wait to see them on some trucks.

They definitely are similar, though the vents being around the rim rather than hub look cooler and evoke turbine wheels (I doubt they have the brake fan effect since they don’t have the internal fins), but definitely a higher aero drag than the holes at the hub like the range wheels. There have been some studies about the design, and I’m not surprised rivian went that direction for the new range wheels (which I really like).

@Atomic Wheels these are super cool! I didn’t think about hub covers for my set! This really is a great touch to the design. Super excited y’all brought these to the game…can’t wait to see more rivian drivers show they “get it” by sporting these! (See spoiler for my custom AW wheels that are similar design)

@Atomic Wheels I love what you are doing. Have you ever considered making an aero disc cap we could put on 20in wheels similar to this design? I know there are options for Tesla’s.

Google "turbofan wheels" and you'll see origins of this design. Good option for those who never go off-pavement.

How I would have done it: A wheel design that mounts using the factory studs, but incorporates a threaded center hub in the wheel design itself. Then a polymer aero disc, with a singular threaded nut/cap, is secured to that threaded hub (similar to how the OG BBC RC covers up studs and hub spider area). This way the aero disc has little chance of flying off, like the clipped on ones. And, it can be removed for off-pavement use (if the wheel design was also done to avoid off-pavement damage of the spokes).

Hey! Great spoiler! :cool: Your wheels were an inspiration.

Amazing design with that unique gold color. A new kind of design for Rivian.

I've reeeeeeeeeaaaaally wanted to see a set of turbofans come out for the Rivian, and these look fantastic. Nice job @Atomic Wheels!

Even better if it's a polymer or composite removable disc, on a wheel design that is also done with off-pavement considerations—so owners could enjoy best of both worlds.
