I'd want them for the pivoting part. A couple of times now I've slid most of the length on the slider only for the rock to end up in my fender flare. I've got some flare scrapes but they are lower profile than the Limited flares and black so it's not too bad. The kick outs would make it a little easier for the kids to climb in as well. My daughter loves wearing cowgirl boots and they are pointy and slippery enough to make it a little tough. I had to remove some of the grip tape at her door because it was cutting up her leg/knee and messing up her clothes.
