Tires Pirelli or Falken
I've used Blizzak, Pirelli (don't remember model), Continental Viking Contact and now Vredestein Wintrac Pro+. Blizzaks were great, Pirellis made a lot of noise on wet pavement - first time I thought I had something failing in the drivetrain. Continentals were good, but when they were almost done they failed in a really weird (scary) way that caused a lot of instability and the wet traction basically went to zero. I'm on a brand new set of Vredesteins now and so far they've been good.
If you buy it, I recommend the Pirelli Angel GT2 tires; they work very well on this bike.
I have the Falken Wildpeak AT4Ws on my 2019 TRD OffRoad in 265/75r16 and I’ve been very impressed, but I live in the south and can’t speak to their snow capabilities! I’ve also had and really like the Toyo Open Country ATIIIs and I’d recommend those too, but I like the Wildpeaks better!
I had Pirelli's on my VW and Hyundai and I never lost traction in the winter.
I highly recommend Pirelli P4 Persist's, they're really good. They'll last a long time and handle well in all sorts of weather, of course you still gotta be careful in heavy rain and snow though.
I’ve been on the pirelli scorpions (18”) for two years. Got me through Chicago snows and Orlando heat with minimal noise. No complaints at all.
I had Open Country tires and they were horrible. Currently have falken wildpeak and they aren't amazing but 10x better than open country from my experience.
I had AT tires on my Cherokee, they were fine in the winter, though not as good as true winters. But I never ran into any problems with 4x4.
Falken WildPeak AT3W Tires
- avoid the willys, stock tires are LOUD (falken mt)
if you have R1S with original pirellis tires over 10/15k miles - getting new tires will make a HUGE difference in ride quality - this is the consensus in the forums - the factory tires don't last and it makes rivian ride rough and loud sooner than most of us are used to.
