Rusty water spots appearing on 1 wheel

[matt f]

So the last few times it’s rained or the truck was washed then driven, I’ve noticed on only my driver rear wheel rusty water spots splattered on the wheel. It seems to be coming from 1 or 2 of the small fake silver bolts/rivets on the plastic hubcap of the method wheel. I’m farely certain these are all plastic. Wondering if maybe it’s rust coming from the hub itself behind the cap?? Anyone else come across this? Truck only has 550 miles on it. 2019.

I had something similar happen with an old f150 of mine, the water would leak out some holes and just cover all of the wheels. I just filled the holes on the backside with some silicone and it took care of it.

Cheap method center caps. Give it some time and the paint will start to peel. Same thing on my Method NVs. Buy this if it bothers you >> https://www.fordraptorforum.com/threads/method-caps-cnc-machinined.54802/
