Exactly what I told my SA. I'm one of the few people who actually uses the boards to mount my bikes or skis on the roof. You loose traction on the boards when the rubbers are flat, specially when they're wet.

if you could do it again, would you order the boards? i'm still undecided.

Definitely. I can't imagine my E70 without it.

I actually get tons of compliments on the running boards. I just need to get myself a set of 20" wheels to complete the look.
