    Has anyone had the issue as I attached images? I just realized today when I clean up my wheels. Happened to both sides in the back. Is it supposed to be like that as manufacturer? Can someone check on your vehicle and confirm for me please.

    You have scratches on the backing plates. Both sides? Never seen that before, anywhere. You could just apply a little black paint to a paper towel and wipe it on to cover the bare metal.

    Thank raylo. What I was asking was the shape of the brake dusk shield, it looks like it bend, not sure if your truck has the same as a new truck.

    If you are talking about the indent on the outer edge of the dust shield, mine have the same indent. I have no clue why they are designed like that.

    Yes, that indent freaked me out when I cleaning my rim this morning, I thought their transportation caused the issue and the scratches were there when I got the truck few weeks ago.
