They’re not bad looking. They mention efficiency improvements - wonder if that is primarily through the weight reduction (3lbs per wheel) or if there is an aero component to it as well.

Costs $5,800 a set to start, which begs the question: how much are Rivian’s OEM 20s worth?

Nope.

Note that they are directional, so it is a set of 2 left and 2 right wheels. If you want the proper appearance it limits how you can rotate tires without remounting.

Me too. Where’s the steelies or wolf wheels so I can go adventuring in my adventure vehicle?
Yeah, I’d be fine with steelies.

I will likely get some 20x9.

What other choices are already on the market and forged and made for the Rivian? I know of just two so far, this one and the choice made by Variant. Here are both for comparison.

Makes the $3,500 blacks from Rivian look like a bargain.
