First, you should almost always use -t unless you have a really good
reason to not sync timestamps otherwise future rsync runs will not
know what has changed and what hasn't.
Second, when you run with -p rsync should detect and fix any
permission differences. If the permissions are the only difference it
should fix them with a simple change to the permissions just like your
chmod.
Note that -a (--archive) includes both -p and -t and a bunch of other
things.
Finally, when in doubt, --itemize-changes.
