Default Rocker Protection Option

Anyone have an opinion on which to choose for a 2dr Rubicon X?

Poison Spyder Brawler Rockers

or

Genright Rockers


I also admit that I like the LoD rockers as well. But, I think I want the side protection and clearance of the other two. Thanks in advance.

Go with the style you like the most, they all do what they are supposed to, so it comes down to which you think looks best.

Choose neither. If you are serious about side protection get rockers that attach to the frame, like the LoD you mentioned, not the tub. People may flame me for this and tell how great their tub attached rockers are, but at the end of the day tub attached rockers give you a chance (albeit good one at times) to avoid damage while frame attached rockers give you a guarantee.

Between the two options I'd go PSC. The design choices they've made help make it lighter and stronger. Lots of internal gussets, holes on the bottom. I do believe their frame mounted versions are only of the Rocker Knockers though, not the brawlers.
