Thought of this as I got tire rub on my OEM wheels/tires on lowest setting when crossing the threshold in my driveway this morning. These would probably have ripped the fender right off.

Yea I was waiting to hear it on the video here. One pothole and that fender is toast.

Unfortunately, the offset in the pictures is the closest the aftermarket currently offers to fitting a Rivian. There are no off-the-shelf offerings that fit yet.

So I couldn't stomach the video, anyone actually know what wheels those are...looking for ref of what offset/backspace and size they are so I know how I don't want to do it....

I'm more intune with this look for my "T" when I get it:

In addition to being horribly fit and basically removing any ability to use the 'low' mode, the fact that they stick out an extra inch is also almost assuredly going to reduce range. These wheels are clearly on a truck owned by someone who wants to look like they do adventure-y things but will definitely only be mall crawling. The first time they hit a sizeable bump they're going to rip plastic trim right off the vehicle. Stupid (though I respect everyone's right to stupidity).

Tirerack suddenly shows 163 wheels that fit the R1T. Of course every single one of them is going to stick out from the truck, and not actually fit.

I wish they would have showed it in the normal or higher ride height settings. Looks like crap in that low setting, but probably could look pretty good in the higher settings.

I still think it could look pretty good if it were raised up. Clearly, a lowered truck on off-road tires is not appealing. But, if it were raised up, then the offset isn't all that much and the tires won't dominate the wheel wells. Unfortunately, was a customer truck that the youtuber obviously had no clue about and left it in the low setting. Highly doubtful the owner plans to drive it around in that setting. If the owner views this site, hopefully he/she will provide some better photos/video of it in a proper ride height.
