Purely from looks, as I have not yet purchased one, the Off Road Evolution seems solid as can be and looks stunning and useful for mounting other stuff to. Also from what I have read from other posts here, that OR Fab carrier is built right and also has good utility to it.

Oh, can I say it too, I just made my first purchase from Northridge 4x4 and they do have really good pricing on the OR Fab.

i have seen the damage the or fab tire carrier can do to the door when coming down off a rock and how far it sticks out the back.

Something to consider there. Although I will not be running quite as extreme trails with this JK 4door as I had with my previous TJ.
