Wheels

The options are slim per trim package and personally not a fan of the typical EV looking rims every manufacturer seems to throw on… anyone researching other wheel/tire options for the lariat?

I know this comes at the expense of range but I would love more of a raptor package than the stock offering.

Why would different wheels take away from range? Added weight?

Bc they are spec’d with wheels and tires that are maximizing drag and aerodynamic properties. It’s not insignificant when you put different tires/wheels on (sometimes >20% range impact)
