CT won't fit tires any larger than what they already have. The limiting factor seems to be clearance on that bolt coming down from the suspension knuckle (or whatever it's called). You'll also have issues with rubbing even if you figure that out.
Speaking of which, forget about doing your own cutting or panel repairs. You won't be pulling dents or using Bondo. Because this is a new alloy, it's not yet clear how to weld it properly. In any case it's tough enough that if a panel needs repair, it probably needs replacement.
The Rivian is a hard no for me because of the crazy repair costs, though if you can DIY PDR then maybe it's for you.
I personally think the right truck for you is what you already got. I wanted the CT because I wanted a bulletproof EV Raptor, something I can use to hop curbs and flee from baddies, but most people don't have to worry about that.
