    Has anyone purchased a set of Tyger running boards? Are they fully functional when getting in and out of your truck? Do the holes match up? Thanks

    The holes line up perfectly on my set, I'm a little on the tall side so I don't use but they work for my wife.

    How's the overall quality of the build and welds?
    They sell for a good price (fully understand they aren't sliders).

    Terrific quality material and workmanship on my set I’ve had for 3 years. No rust and the powder coat is holding up really well. Helps my wife and daughter get in the truck nicely and is wide enough that it makes a comfy spot to stand when I’m loading / unloading gear from my roof rack as well

    Mine come in handy Mall Crawling. Less chance of car doors dinging your doors. They still look good after 2 severe winters here.

    Lined up fine, installed them all by myself.

    I believe Wal-Mart had the best price at the time.

    I got mine on Amazon. They are heavy and beefy as hell. I had some issues wit them (dented on ends), and they are sending me a new set. Pretty awesome company to deal with. I did have to finesse the passenger side to get the holes to line up. I think this set got banged up in shipping or packaging.

    Very nice. For some reason Amazon doesn’t carry them at the moment. Couldn’t find them on Walmart either.

    I purchased mine two years ago in April, easy install by myself (age 77) using shipping box to rest the item on while attaching. All holes lined up. Quality powder coat has made it through several Durango, CO winters without a speck of rust. I've back roaded many miles & the bars have received numerous gravel hits which have spared the leading edge of the rear fenders as well as having caught a lot of mud & icy slush. They do show paint transfers from careless door dings but so far the powder coat is unchipped.
    I bought mine based on the recommendation of a friend who has run them for about 5 years & says he's grounded them several times with no damage to rails or truck so they will support a bit of weight.
    It is true they are no substitute for the frame attached rails but for light duty they are great.

    I have a set as well, just hit three years with them. Love them and lined up great. I’m tall too so really don’t use them daily but great for my lady and washing the top of the truck. Has help with front car door dings but rear doors clear it so be cautious.

    Sweet! Thanks I’m thinking the same about these. My wife has a hard time getting in but I can use the help with door dings.

    I purchased and installed mine 10 months ago and I love them. The holes lined up perfectly. As someone else said above, I don't really need them but my wife sure does. When I lift /level my truck I am probably going to have to change to longer bolts and use some nuts or something as spacers. As they are now they are not really not much lower than the door frame.

    I got a different style than what is linked and pictured here in this thread. I just liked it better than the one with the stars. I also purchased on Amazon.
