Default help on deciding on rock rails

i am looking for rock rails that can also double as a step. i like the lod ones but not paying 600$. would much rather just buy the evo ones but really dont like that they are weld on. i would prefer a bolt on system.

we are going to go with the Poison Spyder Rocker Knockers when we save the money. I really like them and they give alot of protection - but I think they are over $600 - good luck!
