Would love to see those gold rims on a Launch Green R1S or R1T

Isn’t that green, or am I color blind?

Are those wheels available anywhere yet?

Looks like Forest Green with a matte wrap. I wonder what they did for hub-centricity on those wheels. Do they have rings or are they bored to the correct size?

Is that a forest green or a launch green with a darker satin PPF? Looks like @Mark_AZR1T truck, same Variant wheels and didn’t he say he was swapping to cooper tires recently? Maybe not exactly his truck but sure curious to get a review on the coopers.

Yes, that's my truck (original launch green) . Cooper Tires wanted an Electrick Truck in their booth at SEMA with little time to make it happen. Todd at Doetsch Off Road was their contact and he found me through Variant Wheels, who I worked with to build the first from scratch forged wheels (there is another thread on this) and put together some sponsors. Now some answers to questions.

Cooper Tires (main sponsor) mounted and balanced a set of their Discovery AT3 XLT tires for a true off road tire with a real sidewall protection strategy. Factory sized. https://coopertire.com/en-us/find-tires/all-tires/discoverer-at3-xlt

KPMF (from Wales in the UK) wanted their Matte Platinum Dark Sage Green wrap material on the truck, so the air freighted that over to Echelon Autosport in Scottsdale, Arizona who did the wrap. Stunning and completely changes the vehicle. https://www.kpmf.com/

SouleBikes.com provided us with the super cool high speed electric beach cruiser. That thing is trick. Electric truck, electric bike, powered by the R1T. https://soulebikes.com/

1UP provided a pair of cross bar single bike racks, which go well with my existing hitch mount from them. https://www.1up-usa.com/

Built Right Industries freighted over their Molle Panel Kit and all their accesories. Those guys are amazing!! https://builtrightind.com/collections/rivian-r1t-accessories

Doetsch Off Road (Todd) put it all together and it was on the trailer this past Saturday morning on it's way to Las Vegas at 430AM. https://doetschoffroad.com/

Variant Wheels. I worked with Robert (owner) of Variant Wheels to create a custom wheel from scratch for my R1T and they gave me what I desired. Aggressive look with a Satin Bronze. These fit better than the OEM wheels, with the offsets providing less rubbing on OEM sized AT tires and they weigh 12lbs less in total across all four wheels. https://variantwheels.com/ You can buy them here at a serious discount for RivianForum members. https://rivianstyle.com/

Rivian Style. I used this to help launch my business RivianStyle.com https://rivianstyle.com/

Thanks to everyone in the forums!!! Edit. Hubs are bored to the correct size, no hubcentric rings required. These wheels have 7,000 miles on them and are perfect.

Cool truck. Any findings on range impact of that wheel/tire set?

 

[COdogman]

@Mark_AZR1T I hope you get to keep all that great gear as payment for loaning your truck for the show! Looks amazing.

 

[seanocono]

Looks awesome! Thanks for posting all the details.

The tires went on the truck at 5pm on Friday night and it was on a trailer the next morning headed to Vegas, so not yet, but I do know, in theory range will absolutely drop because the tires are 10lbs heavier each! I'm actually driving it back from Vegas Friday night to Phoenix, so I will know exactly the hit on range.

Was hoping to have another set of wheels ready by Method, so I could use the Coopers for pure off road. I'll do a review later, but there are a number of people who sliced the OEM Scorpion sidewalls on trails.

I had no idea how much a 'Premium" wrap material and labor was, so since this is stuck reasonably well to the truck, I think they'll let me keep it on . All these incredible vendors have donated all the products, so they get to come home with me!

Truck looks great. Nice work

That's awesome and it looks incredible! If there is a need for a Compass Yellow R1T for future efforts, I'm here to help!

Thank you! I was just minding my own business when I received a call about Cooper Tires desiring an electric truck in their booth this year. It was last minute, so their builder of choice reached out to me. Because there isn't much aftermarket available and there was time to start a full fab, they did the best they could to put something together.

They wrapped right over my PPF.....looks fantastic and the other goodies, is cool. The cruiser eBike from Soul is actually super fun. I'm an avid mountain biker, so I was hmmmm...but that thing is fun too.....
