i like the look of them. Very OEM+. I have been also trying to decide if they are worth twice the price of the stock rubicon rails.
I realize for the price there are many aftermarket rails that may be stronger. I have looked at all of them, and every time i decide on one, i look at what install is like and it turns me off.
Im not usually one to shy away from a somewhat difficult install, but for some reason rails that are hard to put on are pissing me off haha
I dont want to drill holes into the body.(more holes to rust).. i dont mind welding to the frame. and then i just keep ending back at these enhanced rails and then try to be ok with the nearly $600 price tag

-OEM look
-ease of installation
-can be used as a step
-completely bolt on. no welding or drilling

Here's what I plan on doing. I've spoken to a local fab/weld shop about doing it for me. All I gotta do is remove my Rubi rails and bring them to the shop. Prob will do in the spring.
