Running boards or not?

Just put on some '07 Harley wheels, looking for some opinions on whether I should keep my running boards on or off.

If you ever plan on lifting it leave them on. If not then its just what look you like better. Looks a little cleaner without IMO

It's the one decision your wife/girlfriend gets to make, depending on if she needs them to climb in the truck.

Yeah I'm starting to lean towards leaving them off. And yes, the wife demanded I put them back on, but I guess she'll just have to get used to climbing in and out lol.

Leave them on cause you would start using your steering wheel and door for support and then next thing you know, your door wont shut right cause of the pressure you put on it and the steering wheel will mess up, Happen to my friends truck.

Happy wife is a happy life my friend. First time she falls getting out of the truck bc she has heels on will be the end of no running boards.
