    I'm close to ordering a set of the GoRhino RB20 running boards for my 2018 CM.

    Maybe I'm overthinking this, but have some concerns whether such a wide running board, and with the holes in the board, would have any problems with wind or whistling noises at highway speeds?

    What's been the experience of you RB20 owners?

    The whistling noises are from the ladies as you drive by.

    Both the wind and the ladies think rock sliders look waaay more HOT.












    :stirthepot: Just :boink:, OP. Those are good-looking running boards. (Sorry I have no idea about the answer to your question.)

    I have them.. no noises, but if there was any such noise it would just indicate a need for a nice exhaust!
