Best Running Boards??

I have a '08 F-250 Crew Cab. Just wondering if anyone had any suggestions on running boards? I've looked online and running board warehouse seems to have a few but I just can't decide which ones I want. Also which type... Molded ABS material, stainless steel, billet aluminum? Does the Black ABS material fade over time?

Thanks

They match well, but the nice thing is that they're one of the cheaper running boards, but they're really good quality. We run them on most of our service trucks at work. The 2 07 trucks we have have the plastic factory boards on them and if you get any snow or water on them and they get SUPER slick. The brite treads never have that problem. I can stand on them and they don't deflect down at all like some of the cheap quality ones. I've got some of the more expensive extruded DeeZee boards on my 250 and they suck in comparison.

Right on - do agree that the plas-i-factory ones get somewhat slick with snow.
