I just installed brawler rockers and didn't use the rubber. The company that I bought them through also didn't recommend them.

Most people just seal around them with silicone.

I have them on mine. Seals up nicely behind the rocker guards.

No, just personal preference. As stated, you can just seal around the outside if you want.

My buddy put them behind his rocker guards. they do add some protection but can be a pain to mount as its flopping all around while you're installing.
I like the idea of just using silicone or RTV. Its not like you're ever taking them off
