Anyone with a white R1 and forest edge interior? Can you share pics? I presume this is not a popular option. I liked the wood and color of the FE and I do like white cars given the ease of maintaining the paint. Thanks in advance!

This is my color combo and I like it. I don’t have any good pics showing the exterior and interior together, but those exist elsewhere in this thread. Here’s my latest fav shot from this past weekend, though!

Out of Spec has a ton of videos with the combo, if interested. It goes very well together.

So about a month ago I finally picked up my Rivian R1T that I ordered about a year ago. I placed the pre-order on December 2021. I've been a bit busy with work so I wasn't able to post here till now. It's been a absolute blast! Its hard to believe that this beast is a heavy ass truck! There has been some minor software issues but nothing that takes again from how awesome this truck is. A couple of my friends are diehard truck/Jeep guys who were initially making fun of me saying that it's nothing more than a electric Ridgeline...after were quite shocked after they drove it! Defiantly a great addition to my current stable of cars: 2008 Lexus ISF, 2015 Forester FXT, 2018 Odyssey, and the 1997 Supra TT.

Hey all -
I've seen lots of experimentation by lots of people (including myself) on trying to stuff as much tire onto these trucks as possible for offroad/overland purposes. So, I wanted to consolidate what I've found into one place, and will try to cite sources where possible. I'm going to exclude (for now) people that are willing to take a sawzall and do fiberglass work to get bigger tires onto these trucks. Also tire diameters may vary slightly by tire manufacturer despite being same size
Objective: To achieve the largest contact patch that fits on the truck without tearing up the fender liners.
Method: Minimize rim diameter & maximize tire width and sidewall
Observation #1: The front outboard fender plastic is the width constraint on tire compression.
Observation #2: The front forward fender is the offset constraint at wheel lock
Findings: So far it seems that 35" diameter is the largest that will reasonably fit without really hurting things.
*Note: Why TF have we normalized mixing imperial/metric units?!?
For reference, here are some photos of my truck with the Racelines installed and sitting at standard ride height, to be determined how much rubbing there is while offroading but assuming there will be some.
If you guys have tested other combinations for offroading, please post and I'll update the matrix above!
