I recently got it rust proofed and I noticed on the driver door when you close it there is a slight rattle but on the passenger side there is none

It's a small rattle not loud at all and maybe I just noticed it now and it was happening before ..As I always shut my windows when I close the door

This only happens when the window is down and when it's up there is no rattle

Is this normal ?

As long as it stays "slight" it is.
Frameless windows rattle around more then can sometimes be good for them .

Did my own oil change for the first time ever. Really easy.

Getting the old oil back in the bottles without a funnel was not as easy.

These winter wheels fit really well.

Is this your first winter with the car? If not, did you have any trouble with ground clearance with a drop like that? I've been wanting to put on the TRD springs but am worried about ground clearance in the winter.

Last winter I run 225/40R18 all-season and dropped even more, which means I had less ground clearance.

It was totally fine to me. As you see I still have my front bumper. But its just me. I drove low car for years already.

Edit:

Pics from last winter attached.

It's just a bit darker than body colour (Tinted orange hot lava colour). It looks really well. Will

The decals are a really nice touch as well.
How do they look against the Lava?
