    She want something that she feel sure footed when she step on it. She said my is to narrow. That's why I am thinking about the slider or the oem plastic one

    Edit your profile to show your location so people reading your post see what part of the US you're in. I've got a pair of N-FABs I'm going to be listing for sale shortly in Northern Colorado so if you were nearby I'd PM you and give you first crack. Odds are good that you're not near me but maybe someone else is and has some for sale too.

    Nerf bars will definitely look more aggressive but if you need a wider platform for a more secured stepping surface runningboards are for you.

    I bought Westin nerf bars for my '10. They worked great when my father in law was still alive and I had to bring him places..

    Hey @ZRXDean when you bought your rhinos did you consider NFAB?

    I did - but I liked the removable step plate on the go rhinos. Really just a style thing for me.

    I LOVE the look of my smittybilt nerf bars, but I think they are pretty much useless as sidesteps, they are just kind of awkward to use. I'm 6'2'' so it doesn't matter much to me :D. I had the stock runningboards and for a pregnant wife, I think those are your best bet.

    I bought Ionic Railway 5" tube steps. Plastic and aluminum construction. Wide step without the running board look.

    Go Rhino D2 in chrome, everyone does black. Black steps will last 2 years in salt use areas. Chrome are guaranteed for life of vehicle. My 2 cents.
