INSIGHTS:
Meet the AWZ2, one of our best-selling designs for the Rivian R1T and R1S. But what does “forged” mean?
Think of forged wheel technology as the art of transforming a single piece of top-grade aluminum alloy—specifically 6061-t6 aluminum—into a wheel that’s both incredibly strong and impressively light. We start with a forged billet—a solid piece of this high-quality metal that has already been forged to enhance its strength and structural integrity. This process changes the metal at its core, making it tougher than traditional cast wheels. Using precise CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machining, we sculpt this forged billet into the final wheel design with meticulous detail. This process allows us to achieve the intricate styling and exact specifications that make our wheels a perfect fit for your Rivian.
In plain English, forged wheels are like the superheroes of the wheel world. They’re stronger and lighter, which means they can boost your vehicle’s performance. You’ll feel better acceleration, smoother braking, and sharper handling because the wheels reduce the weight your suspension has to deal with. Plus, they’re built to last, standing up to the bumps and potholes you encounter on the road. So not only do they look great, but they also give you confidence in your ride’s durability and efficiency.
We use Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to ensure the AWZ2 wheel is as tough as it looks. Think of FEA as a virtual stress test: we simulate real-world scenarios like hitting potholes or carrying heavy loads on the computer. This helps us spot and fix any potential weak spots before the wheel is made. The result? A wheel that’s not just stylish but also built to handle whatever the road throws at you. So you can drive with confidence, knowing your wheels are designed for strength and reliability.
All our Atomic Wheels forged wheels, including the AWZ2, feature a knurled bead seat. This is a specially textured surface where the tire meets the wheel, designed to prevent tire slippage under hard braking and acceleration. Whether you’re making quick stops or rapid launches, the knurled bead ensures your tires stay firmly in place, providing you with added safety and confidence on every drive.
Besides, we also offer a lightweight hub designed in the shape of a star. This innovative design significantly reduces the weight of the already light wheels while still ensuring a reliable and secure connection of the wheel to the hub surface.
Our AWZ2 wheels are fully compatible with Rivian’s original lug nuts and TPMS sensors, making installation straightforward. Due to the design of our wheels, the lug nut holes are slightly narrower than those on the OEM wheels. We recommend using a thin-wall socket to install the OEM lug nuts. This ensures a proper fit and helps prevent any scratches to the wheel’s finish. With this simple step, you can easily use your existing hardware and enjoy a perfect fit with your new wheels.
TIRE RECOMMENDATION:
The standard tire size for 20-inch wheels on a Rivian is 275/65/20. However, for those looking for an alternative, we recommend the 275/60/20 profile. This size matches the diameter of the 21-inch tires (275/55/21), allowing you to switch without needing to reprogram your vehicle. Additionally, the 275/60/20 option can increase range and efficiency when paired with our forged wheels. For an affordable and efficient tire choice, we suggest the General Grabber HTS60 in 275/60/20.
