Thanks for all the information guys! I went with the e-auto Raptors pictured above. For the price they seem to meet my needs and mount the same as the ACE or Smittybilts. I have factory rubi rails on the way for cheap, so I'm hoping they'll work together and if the Raptor rockers do come toward the body the rubi rails will be all they contact.
If I end up not liking them, I'll replace them with the ACE rockers based on this thread. Though I am going to look at the LOD's as well.

Of course! I'll be doing a lot of work to my jeep this fall after being trapped in Europe where it simply wasn't feasible. I plan to log and write up most of it. So much pent of wrenching!

ACE rock rails are the way to go. I beat the b*lls out of mine. They don't mind or move. Just a couple dents and some scratching. I dropped my passenger side onto a rock off at least a foot drop. I thought I destroyed something. Only a little dent on the tube. Great product. Super easy install. Can't be beat

I have JCR Classic Rock Sliders. They attach to the pinch seam (like Rubi Rails) and are much better construction than the ACE.
The new boat side style sliders they make (with integrated rock lights) would be my first choice if I didn't already have these others.

On that note, both bumpers and rockers have arrived and look great! Should have everything installed by mid-September. Seems that the few bad reviews I read were all related to shipping damage. So far so good!

You'll get full credit where do, though I've already bought and paid for everything.
