some of you guys don't understand that steel will rust, period. chinese steel, american steel, ussr steel, it all rusts - paint it, frequently. Eauto has a goofy finish, but paint over it, costs $5 and very little time. My EVO powdercoated sliders have flaked and rusted...but I paint them and thats what happens.
as for eauto, they replaced a rear tire carrier I bought on ebay over a year after I got it no questions asked - I had some minor issue and they could have told me to pound sand. They only verified the feedback I received from them and that was it. I had a new one in a day or two.
I'm not going to say the cuts are the best or the welds are the prettiest, but for that price point you won't come close to eauto, and for me to spend money for JCR or something it would have cost triple (for the rear, I do have a JCR front) I'm pretty sure barricade is the exact same stuff but almost twice the price.
After having my rear tire carrier, for the money it doesn't make any sense to get anything else, unless you're spending close to $1500 or more for top of the line....which to me they both carry a spare and bounce off rocks, so who cares.
