I like the quality of Westin. You can see them in my photos. I banged them around a little off roading and they stood up to the test.

luk8272 · 07-03-2008, 01:59 PM

I like the westin also. But they both look good. Its gonna be tuff.

eordonez · 07-03-2008, 02:03 PM

Yea... its tough, at least chrome is out of the question i got a black sand pearl trd sport.... so i dont know yet LOL

MikeS. · 07-03-2008, 02:19 PM

I like the 2nd set best.

chris4x4 · 07-03-2008, 02:20 PM

As far as looks go, I like the Toyota ones, as they seem to fit a little better. Judging from the pics. anyway.

eordonez · 07-03-2008, 02:25 PM

Ok i just made this a poll.... hehehe

mrtrd103 · 07-03-2008, 02:40 PM

i think the toyota ones will look nice i wazz gonna get the oval tube step from westin but the guy at bay state truck caps said they rust to fast

eordonez · 07-03-2008, 03:22 PM

yea im kinda liking the toyota ones better, i want to make up my mind today, so they arrive to el paso next week and go pick them up.....

Asgard · 07-03-2008, 04:05 PM

I have the chrome Westin Platinum Series and they look great but they will run you about $450. One thing I can tell you about the Toyota ones is the quality is not all that great, the silver paint chips easily. I vote for the Westin.

mws4ua · 07-03-2008, 04:07 PM

Poll is 50/50 as of now... good luck deciding!

Homer J · 07-03-2008, 05:58 PM

I like the toyota ones.

eordonez · 07-03-2008, 06:04 PM

cool cool.... the poll is still even lmao

t-frax · 07-03-2008, 06:20 PM

have you thought about N-Fabs or Go Rhino's Dominator II?

I mean if you are going to spend the amount of cash on the westins or toyota brand, mind as well spend a little more and get a killer look.

06BLUEDBLSPORT · 07-03-2008, 09:36 PM

The toyota is wider, i have them on my Taco, you wont be dissapointed

tacomaman06 · 07-03-2008, 09:38 PM

i voted for the toyota ones....they look pretty good, and they will match the wheels pretty good.

eordonez · 07-04-2008, 02:57 PM

Well i just ordered the toyota silver ones......

Screw step bars. Get some sliders.

Wish I had done that the first time around. Now mine are banged up and basically scrap metal now once they get replaced.

Ed, I've had Westin on my last two trucks and been very happy with them. However both of mine were chromed and for a X-tra cab or Access cab which turn in and mount directly to the frame front and rear.

From what I've gathered from Wilson and some others is that the Westin's for the DC mount to brackets that extend away from the frame at different locations and the step is actually straight and bolts to these brackets. I feel that the mounting by the pictures would be about the same for strength. Quality should be close to the same for either.

That being said I voted for the Westin's as I thought the black ones looked better on your truck.

I wish I had read this post all the way through as you had already made up your mind.
