You're also more likely to have issues with the rails bending, as the further the rail sticks out from its mounting points the weaker it becomes.
    If I were buying today, I would go 4XGuard all the way.......but I bought my sliders almost a year ago and had to make do with what was available then.

    I just installed one side of the 4xGuard side guards. If you have any lift at all (and possibly even if you don't) I highly doubt you will suffer any future door dings if you install. They protrude enough to make folks think twice. Can't wait to hear the guys that park next to me at work cry when they remove some paint from their door edge. Hell, I might even start a color of the month club! :-)
