Wouldn't there be an issue of brake cooling with the wheels being solid like that? I would be a little worried on warping the rotors

I installed the Midland MTX115 GMRS radio this morning. The hardest part was figuring out how I wanted to mount the magnetic base antenna and get the huge connector through the lower dash without taking the center console apart. The radio unit is small so it left me with plenty of room to access the OEM cigarrete lighter and USB port. I ran the antenna wire through the bottom of the 3rd brake light in hope of reducing the chance of water leaking into the cab. I plan on replacing the tiny antenna with the taller Midland +6db antenna. I purchased the bundle package which includes 2 hand held radios as well. https://midlandusa.com/product/ormxt115vp-micromobile-gxt-bundle/
I'll tuck the red wires away later. I pinched my neck climbing around in the footwell...
Without my wireless phone charger mounted
Antenna
Drilled a hole through the back and fished the antenna wire through. I will tuck the power cable back through the hole to hide the excess. When I sell the truck I'll just plug the hole with a rubber plug.

They’re heavier than my old SR5 wheel! 50lbs ea, but don’t think I’m gonna be bending these.

Thanks!
I Really really like it so far. A higher build quality than I was expecting.
A bed cover I can walk around on. I even stood in the little boxes and they held my weight. I weigh 200lbs too. Lol
Nothing major, just changed a burned out headlamp. But successfully found my 10mm socket and finished up with a 10mm in my toolbox.

Safety pressure valve started going bad on my ARB twin compressor so I replaced the head assembly. Had to dismantle most of the compressor to do it. Found a few screws that had fallen out... I used locktite to put it back together. Just something other might want to check on every once in a while.
