Default ARB Rock Sliders vs ShrockWorks Rock Sliders

It was announced that the ARB Rock Sliders wore released for the JK. (does some have them and can post better pics?)

I would like to choose between the ShrockWorks and ARB. ShrockWorks look great and ARB are great products.

Which one would you choose and why?

I went with ARB's, they are sweet, Robar has photos of his. I like em for 3 reasons. 1 while you could use them as a step if you need to, they don't stick out too far. 2. They come with a little trim piece to hide the pinch seam. 3. They sit real "high" to the body of the jeep.

shrockworks are bulletproof

ARB makes excellent products as well

i personally like having the sliders stick out a little rom the body as they protect the body as well

if you get off camber and there is a rock, if the rockers dont stick out past the body, great chance of putting a huge dent in your body, which could get epxensive to fix

I have a set of the Shrockworks sliders sitting on the floor in my shop. I installed them and decided that I really don't like the look of the factory pinch welds. The pinch welds were covered by my Rubicon sliders. I removed the Shrock sliders until I can come up with a cover that will work on the pinch welds. What do the covers that ARB provides look like? How do they mount? Does ARB have slider install instructions online? I plan to keep the Shrock sliders. I just wish they addressed the pinch welds.

Thanks,
