I wouldn't wheel without side protection. And I've wheeled with the steps before. They get beat up pretty good - they're basically blocks of plastic and foam with a few pieces of steel at the hard-points.
BUT... if you don't wheel, I think your JK will look better without them. My opinion. No one else's.

Ease up man, wasn't trying to call you out or offend you. We all have opinions, you said yours and I said mine....no biggie. Nice rails btw can't wait to grab a set

Joe Boxer's a piece of work. Don't get worked up on that guy, man. He's in it to get you. I've seen most of his posts and he's a real negative/combative kinda guy. Maybe he's not like that in real life, but he sure knows how to duke em up from the safety of his computer screen.

The ACE rails look okay, but from the pics that I've seen it looks like you can see a lot of the underneath/seam. It's a pity because the price is about as much as I want to pay. I was looking at the Rubicon rails today and they look great, but does anyone know of a decent (easily detachable) side step that is compatible with them?

X2.. Your Jeep looks sick regardless!! Take a look at the Smittybilt XRC's.. I'm eyeing those, but still can't shake PureJeep or Poison Spyder.. Only drawback w/ PJ or PS is that you have to drill holes into the body.. Who knows, I may get ballsy!! I already cut the hood!!
