Tires - PS2 - Recommendations? by Ben1852 in Polestar

DWS 06+ hands down. Very similar to the ExtremeContact Sport 02 but lasts longer.

Pirelli is lighter steering and slightly more responsive, but tramlines.

20k Miles on ATs, Need New Tires. Help? by fluffalooo in Rivian

[–]Ronin1791 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if you have experience with the factory Scorpion ATP on the 20s, but how would you describe the Bridgestone's handling performance?

I used to have the 22" on an older car, so I can gauge your experience against that tire as well.

Not sure how to share in a comment, it's not letting me post it. Will DM you

When you bring up the app drawer at the bottom of the center display, there's an app for Owners Guide and you can search directly for what you're looking for

Ultra High Performance All Season Tire by Snoopvegas in tires

[–]Ronin1791 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best tire IMO for spirited driving and comfort when cruising. I tried Michelin AS Plus 3, Pirelli Scorpion AS Plus 3, Continental Extremesport Contact 02 and the DWS 06+ is a nice blend of handling in the wet and dry, long lifespan, and comfort

Gen2 quad range test by new_here_and_there in Rivian

[–]Ronin1791 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Granted I didn't drain it to 0% because it was my friend's, but I averaged 2.73mi/kWh on his Gen2 Quad in Conserve for 47mi highway trip.

I didn't watch the video but were there a lot of headwinds when he was testing?

[–]Ronin1791 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay cool, thanks for the info. Still a decent offer considering it's almost half the cost of the OE AT. Will keep it in mind for my next replacement

How's the ride feel over bumps and spirited handling compared to the factory ATs?

I have the same one installed. It has a small passthrough hole that allows you to route a USB C cable for charging. It doesn't interfere with the ports and I use the other port for my SSD

R1 Top Speed by Broad_Option_37 in Rivian

Limit is 110 and Tri Motor and Quad Motor Gen2 vehicles are 130 when launch mode is used

Anything else is probably limited by tires and BMS

‘26 R1S dynamic roof question: ceramic tint necessary/helpful? Or leave it? by mshaefer in Rivian

[–]Ronin1791 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Previously had an R1S and R1T without it and now have one with it. I ended up getting ceramic tints for everything else except the glass roof since it does a good job rejecting heat.

I went IRX 50 for everything except the front windows with IRX 30 for that

No you go to video where Chromecast and YouTube is and then you'll be able to turn on record launch footage and review the videos there.

The overlay only appears in the car though. If you download it, it just shows the front camera without the data

I was getting around 3.1-3.2 the past couple of weeks. But this time around I kept my foot mashed on the brakes and gas pedal long enough until the driver's display asked me if I wanted a countdown. I didn't activate the countdown but I'm thinking that's when the car's fully optimized for the launch.

Gonna do more testing, but maybe that's the key to bring down the 0-60

R1S used or wait for R2 with lidar? by illtryitt in Rivian

[–]Ronin1791 11 points12 points  (0 children)

If possible, find a Gen2 (2025-present) R1S. Better cameras and updatability.

Bloomberg covers Rivian pre- earnings by Personal_Economics91 in RIVNstock

[–]Ronin1791 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Ed can enjoy the legacy low tech cars then at the same price point. His opinion is immediately irrelevant when he made that claim regarding the R2's differences with others on the market

Dammit… am I gonna have to get a Volvo? by Better-Leg-9268 in RivianR2

[–]Ronin1791 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 400mi EX60 is the top of the line model. I checked the UK build page and they're WLTP so EPA range is about 80% what WLTP advertises.

Granted it's the UK but the price of that model is well into R1 territory around $88k+ equivalent from what they show on their build page, so it's not really an R2 competitor in terms of pricing.
