Skid Plates
I have 50,000 miles on my JK and have been to Moab and the Rubicon trail the last 2 years plus numerous other wheeling trips. No damage except for abused skid plates. I know plenty of other people who run with stock skids. Granted, I do have 37" tires but, I wheel hard.

You can go overboard with the skid plates, just depends on what you want to do.
We put Riddler Diff covers on right away and got the same rock rails you have.
We have a 2 door with the skid row oil pan and trans cover. Works great. Also have an evap can skid, never thought I'd need it and had it on a week and banged the devil out of it. Worked fine.
Last year I added some lower shock mount skids as I found I was wearing out the stock mounts.
Thats been enough to do some fairly serious rock crawling in the Rockies for the last three years.
