Default Rock Rails with Steps?

I know I will ever do any serious off-roading that would require rock rails, maybe some light trails. But I do like the looks of them and I do realize it would be nice to have some steps to ease getting in. My wife is 71 and it would help her tremendously, although it is not her primary vehicle.

Instead of getting the plastic steps Jeep offers, I was wondering if anyone could recommend rock rails that have a built in step area or some other alternative. If you have pictures or a link, all the better.

Thanks!

Those GO RHINO Dominator II Side Steps are looking pretty good! Someone on another site also suggested the Smittybuilt Side Armour which would work too.

I have the Smitty Built and really like them. Easy to install, but I did have to elongate one mount hole. The only thing I don't like is that they still let rocks from my gravel road pop up and ding the rear fender.
