I emailed my guide a few days ago but have heard crickets. :-(. I guess I need to try again.

Just ordered a set in black (apparently you can get them in anthracite) and they will be delivered with my full size spare on September 8. Service folks have been very easy to work with.

It is funny and / or sad that there is apparently no task these days simple enough to accomplish that directions are not required. I recently purchased a set of valve stem caps for a car and those came with installation instructions!

I'm guessing it's because of the potential for the brakes to be hot. Strictly wanted to idiot proof that.

how much did you pay for the caps? cause I am being told a high price for them and I am questioning if I should get them anymore since its pretty high.

You may want to call back and confirm they ordered the right part... They originally asked me if I wanted black/grey matte/glossy and we went back and forth a few times before I asked them to confirm these were for the 21" wheels. They said they thought they were universal for all Rivian wheels, and I said that was not my understanding. They said they'd research and call me back. Got a text message a few minutes later appologizing and that there was a special set for the 21" wheels -- no color options. Got those ordered!

Here's the work order they sent, including pricing and part number.

Did you get the same part #?

I'm still over here waiting to hear what the actual range reduction is on the 21s without the aero covers. I can't imagine it's that much but would love to see some real-world tests.

Got a set of 4 standard black caps for my 21's on Amazon, $17.99 shipped...I can do without the logo I guess.
That is far less than 150.00 for the Rivan branded. Do they fit as they should, would you mind posting a picture?

They fit great.

If you want to get fancy you can buy some Rivian logo stickers from Twraps.com. I didn't want to pay more money to put more logos on my truck.

I called to local SC but got to the Service support, told them I want to buy those caps, they told me it doesn't exist. Then I told them I have a part#. The guy on the phone was really surprised and almost yelled and asked me "YOU HAVE A PART#???" - like it is something under top secret status. After a few seconds, the guy told me he will transfer my call to Support. Support answered in a few seconds and after repeating what I want they told me it doesn't exist. I said I have a part number. The lady said okay I will transfer your call to Service Support... I told them they transferred me to you. Then she put me on hold trying to get more info, and came back with the answer: "no parts or accessories are publicly available at this time and you will need to wait until it will be available in the gear shop"
Rivian loop.
If I will consider the fact that I change cars every 6-10 months and I have had my truck for 3 months already, I think I will not even get all-weather mats before selling the truck lol.

Thanks for the picture and Amazon Link! Just ordered some for myself. I can't imagine the range going down much with the plastic inserts removed, plus I would guess the wheels will stay cooler because of the extra ventilation ?? Plus the wheels without the inserts look WAY better, to me anyway :)
