Carr's Super Hoops

Looking for opinions on the super hoops - I have one friend with them and he likes them so far but has only had them on for a few months. Easy installation? Do they stay on tight? Thanks.

I installed a set on a lease truck we used for work in AZ last yera. Used them for 6 months with no problems. They work great.
Just watch out you don't smack them on rocks and such if your off road.

I've had the Super Hoops on mine for about 2 years.....really like them and they are as tight as can be. They flex a little bit, but significantly less than nerf bars that I've jumped on. I bought some older ones off flEbay that are the old style mount, so I used a bolt in the pinch weld and two screws into the back of the rocker on each end of the steps. I had to put shims (washers) between the step mount and the back of the rocker panel because the rocker is not vertical and I wanted the steps to mount vertical. Took about a half day. I am not sure how the newer mounts work, but they need to take into account the irregularity and non-verticalness of the back of the rocker panel.

I have several photos posted in this thread:
