Anyone have a suggestion on winter snow tires for my R1T ? My primary set are the 20’s… and I’m about to go into my first winter, with the locals strongly suggesting snow tires.

Sorry, but if one can't buy one single wheel and/or one single wheel and tire mounted, and it has to be installed at SC, I'll be dumbfounded and pissed. All I'm gonna want is one extra "real" AT 20" spare for R1S Adventuring off-road. I'll strap it down in the cargo area of the R1S. I certainly hope this isn't a requirement to buy four only and only have the SC install!

Yes, it seems you can't buy just one.
Same here. I imagine in time....

Why would anyone pay the 20 up charge based on the delta to 21s in the shop if you want multiple wheel options?
Surprised how small the difference in cost the 20 (or more) vs 21s. In the configurator it is $1800 to switch from the 21s at a minimum whereas here the difference is only $400. I would have expected a larger difference or it is a good profit center for them when people choose different wheels upon ordering.
I noticed the same thing. $1800 upcharge for 20s in the configurator, but only $400 in the gear shop. For anyone that wants both, it makes more sense to go with 21s on your order and buy 20s later.

I’ve been on the fence about 20 vs 21. Given the pricing in the gear shop, I think I’ll configure 21s and then order 20s if I decide I need them later. Given the cost of tires at $1500, it’s a pretty good deal for a second set of wheels and tires.

This ended up being exactly what I’m doing.

I prefer the look of the 20s but the range hit won me over to the 21s. And I’ll use the 20s for winter and the occasional off-road trip. Clearly, this wasn’t a decision based in sound financial logic … LOL
