No surround in my 2011 165 either. But I think the tub has a lip the protrudes upward behind the walls. Ill do a water test as I have yet to use the shower. Use the campground shower always.

I only use bias-ply No radials for me on my single axle. I like the comfort of the stiff walls and the belts lay 45 degrees to the travel unlike radials. OME was bias so I wont change to radial.

Love the fiberglass on my 2011 165. I think they are better insulated by design.
Stays cold inside when its hot out and warm when its cold outside. To me its like a big cooler.
