Rivian Customization in Kansas City
American Fusion Wheels is Kansas City's premier Rivian customization shop. We specialize in wheels, tires, audio upgrades, window tint, paint protection film, ceramic coating, and adventure accessories for the Rivian R1T pickup and R1S SUV. Located in Shawnee, KS — just off I-435 — we serve Rivian owners from across the KC metro who want to personalize their vehicles beyond the factory configuration.
The Rivian R1T and R1S are unlike anything else on the road — quad motor electric powertrains, innovative storage solutions like the gear tunnel, and genuine off-road capability. Our customization approach respects what makes Rivian unique while enhancing performance, protection, and style.
Wheels & Tires — Rivian's stock 21-inch wheels look great, but the aftermarket opens up a world of options. For R1T owners who take their trucks off-road, we build aggressive all-terrain setups with Method Race Wheels, Black Rhino, and Fuel Off-Road in 20-inch sizes paired with BFGoodrich KO2, Falken Wildpeak AT3W, or Toyo Open Country AT III tires. These setups deliver serious off-road traction with a manageable range impact. For R1S owners who want a refined street look, Vossen and HRE flow-formed and forged wheels in 21 or 22-inch sizes provide a premium aesthetic. Every wheel package includes mounting, balancing, and TPMS programming for the Rivian platform.
Audio Upgrades — Rivian's Meridian audio system is a solid foundation, but our upgrades take it further. We install Focal, JL Audio, and Audison component speakers, amplifiers, and subwoofer systems that integrate with Rivian infotainment without losing any factory functionality. The R1T unique gear tunnel and frunk offer creative subwoofer placement options that other vehicles simply cannot match.
Window Tint & PPF — Kansas summers are brutal. Ceramic window tint on your Rivian reduces cabin heat, blocks 99 percent of UV rays, and enhances privacy. We use XPEL PRIME XR Plus and 3M Ceramic IR films on the side glass and panoramic roof. For paint protection, full-body PPF shields your Rivian from rock chips on I-435 and gravel roads, while ceramic coating provides lasting gloss and easy cleanup after muddy adventures.
Adventure Accessories — The Rivian was built for adventure, and we help you gear up. Roof racks and crossbars from Thule, Yakima, and Front Runner. Bed racks for the R1T that support rooftop tents and cargo platforms. Gear tunnel organizers, all-weather floor mats, recovery boards, and overlanding accessories. We build complete adventure rigs that are ready for Kansas trails and beyond.

Why Choose American Fusion Wheels for Rivian Customization
Professional service, quality parts, and expert installation — all under one roof in Shawnee, KS.
Wheels & Tires
Upgrade your Rivian R1T or R1S with premium aftermarket wheels from Method Race Wheels, Black Rhino, Fuel Off-Road, Vossen, and HRE. The Rivian's 5x120 bolt pattern and 21-inch stock wheels give you excellent upsizing and downsizing options. For the R1T, rugged all-terrain setups with Method 305 NV or Black Rhino Armory wheels paired with BFGoodrich KO2 or Falken Wildpeak AT3W tires deliver serious off-road capability without sacrificing excessive range. For the R1S, flow-formed and forged street wheels from Vossen and HRE provide a refined, premium look.
Audio Upgrades
The Rivian Meridian sound system is solid from the factory, but audiophiles will appreciate upgraded component speakers from Focal, JL Audio, and Audison. We install amplifier upgrades, DSP tuning, and subwoofer systems that integrate seamlessly with Rivian infotainment. The R1T frunk and gear tunnel provide unique subwoofer mounting options that no other vehicle platform offers.
PPF & Ceramic Coating
Protect your Rivian paint from Kansas highway debris with professional paint protection film (PPF) on the hood, fenders, bumper, and rocker panels. Full-body ceramic coating provides long-lasting hydrophobic protection and UV resistance. Rivian flat body panels are ideal candidates for PPF coverage — clean lines mean clean installation with minimal seams.
Window Tint & Appearance
Professional ceramic window tint reduces cabin heat and UV exposure while preserving Rivian panoramic glass roof visibility. We use XPEL PRIME XR Plus and 3M Ceramic IR films rated for the full UV and infrared spectrum. Tinting the massive R1S panoramic roof dramatically improves interior comfort during Kansas summers without interfering with Camp Mode visibility.
Adventure Accessories & Roof Racks
Maximize your Rivian adventure capability with aftermarket roof racks, crossbars, cargo management systems, and Camp Mode accessories. We install Thule, Yakima, and Front Runner roof rack systems sized for the R1T bed and R1S roof rails. Bed racks for the R1T support rooftop tents, cargo boxes, and bike carriers. Gear tunnel organizers, all-weather floor mats, and recovery equipment round out the build.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about rivian customization at American Fusion Wheels.
What Rivian models do you customize?
We customize both the Rivian R1T pickup truck and R1S SUV across all trim levels — Adventure, Launch Edition, and Dual/Quad Motor configurations. Whether you have the standard Dual Motor or the Quad Motor with Max Pack battery, our upgrades are designed to complement Rivian engineering. We handle wheels, tires, audio, window tint, PPF, ceramic coating, and accessories for every R1T and R1S variant.
Will aftermarket wheels affect my Rivian range?
Wheel and tire selection has a measurable impact on EV range. Rivian stock 21-inch wheels are aerodynamically optimized for efficiency. Going to a larger or heavier wheel will reduce range by 5 to 15 percent depending on size and tire choice. However, many R1T owners who prioritize off-road use choose 18 or 20-inch wheels with all-terrain tires like BFGoodrich KO2s — the slight range reduction is worth the dramatic improvement in off-road capability. We help you balance range, performance, and appearance based on how you actually use your Rivian.
What are the best tires for a Rivian R1T?
For all-terrain use, BFGoodrich KO2 in 275/65R20 is the most popular choice among R1T owners — excellent traction on and off road with reasonable range impact. Falken Wildpeak AT3W is another strong option with better wet traction. Toyo Open Country AT III provides a quieter ride with good off-road capability. For highway and range-focused driving, Michelin CrossClimate 2 or Continental CrossContact LX25 offer all-season grip with lower rolling resistance. We carry all of these and will recommend the best tire based on your driving priorities.
How much does Rivian customization cost?
Rivian customization pricing depends on scope. An aftermarket wheel and tire package runs $2,500 to $6,000+ depending on brand and size — Method Race Wheels with BFGoodrich KO2s is around $3,000 to $3,500 installed with TPMS. Ceramic window tint for the full vehicle including the panoramic roof runs $400 to $800. Full-body PPF starts at $5,000+. Ceramic coating ranges from $800 to $2,000 for a multi-year system. Audio upgrades start at $500 for component speakers and go up from there. Call 913-291-2027 for a free quote on your specific Rivian build.
Can you install roof racks and accessories on a Rivian?
Yes. We install roof racks, crossbars, bed racks, cargo boxes, and adventure accessories on both the R1T and R1S. For the R1T, bed rack systems from Front Runner and others support rooftop tents, kayak carriers, and cargo platforms without sacrificing bed utility. The R1S has integrated roof rails that accept crossbar systems from Thule and Yakima. We also handle gear tunnel organization, all-weather mats, and recovery accessories for overlanding builds.
Do you handle TPMS programming for Rivian?
Absolutely. Every Rivian wheel and tire package we install includes TPMS sensor programming. Rivian uses a direct TPMS system — we install new sensors in your aftermarket wheels and program them to your vehicle so tire pressure readings display correctly on the Rivian infotainment screen. If you are running a second set of wheels for winter or off-road use, we can set up TPMS on both sets.
Will modifications void my Rivian warranty?
Under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, Rivian cannot void your entire warranty because you installed aftermarket wheels, tint, or accessories. If a modification directly causes a failure, Rivian could deny that specific claim, but properly installed wheels, tires, window tint, PPF, ceramic coating, and audio upgrades pose no warranty risk. We use quality parts and proper installation procedures to keep your Rivian running as designed.

The truck looks incredible and is now properly set up for weekend trail runs at Clinton Lake. They handled the TPMS programming perfectly and the tint on that huge windshield is flawless.
