    I'm hoping for a warm up to get mine put on soon as well. Those look good. I'd be inclined to hit those gaps with black Silicone RTV and call it a day.

    I've got the foam washers under the brackets and surrounding the mounting holes, as well as silicone around the screw heads. I'm sure water will get into the rain gutter, but none should make it into the cab.

    Tundra steelies installed. Pushes the tires out a bit which is what I was after. Plus I love the steelie look on trucks.

    Touched up a 3 year old plasti dip on my rims. New tire instillation messed it up quite a bit.
    Also noticed one of my hub caps is missing, so i took them all off for now.

    It’s hard to find them in good condition. The 3 I sourced off one Tundra had some hidden rust gems under the stock paint coat, so I had a lot of "fun" with a wire wheel brush and paint stripper taking them back down to bare metal. The 4th wheel was just a stock spare so it was in better condition. Decided on POR15 for each wheel's interior side, given POR doesn't like UV light without a topcoat. Selectively cleaned up the exteriors where minor surface rust had formed and hit them with duplicolor engine enamel semi-gloss. Really happy with the way they came out for ~$50/wheel. And happy the tire guys didn't goob my wheels during install lol, and the coating held up very well.

    Thanks. Definitely didn't plan on putting this much effort into the truck but its been the best vehicle I've ever owned and even at over 200K on the odometer, I have no intentions of parting ways in the near future.
