    I have been thinking about adding step bars to my truck. What do you guys think, step bars or no step bars? Looking at something like this (1st pic) or keep it as it is (2nd pic)

    Depends on budget and how you use your Tundra, some like sliders, some like Nurf, some have OEM

    I'm glad my truck came with step bars. If didn't have them I would have bought something for the usefulness for myself and my kids.

    I’m looking at the ones like the first picture. Not on a budget. I had some Oem ones but sold to another guy. Now getting tired of jumping in my truck

    You got a photo of yours from another angle? These look good. Looks like a similar setup to mine. I just have bilstein 5100’s and 295’s. Is that what you have?

    Tyger makes a pretty nice looking step. I believe there's a few members on here with them

    WESTIN HDX 3” drop running boards look sharp. They are extremely easy to put on. Little over 90 min by myself

    I have Bully's that came with the truck, wife doesn't like them so I think I'll get full length, wider running boards like those from Ionic.
