Specs:
Westin's R5 nerf bars make the trip from your vehicle's door to the ground a smooth transition. The bars' straight-style design and squared edges offer a rugged look, and the 5" width provides greater stability than narrower round bars.
Injection-molded covers conceal the mounting brackets used to install the step bars for a seamless, from-the-factory appearance.
Oversize step pads allow you and your passengers to safely step out of your vehicle. The grooves in the UV-resistant, injection-molded polymer pads provide traction and direct water away from the surface of the bars to help prevent slipping.
No need to worry about rust on these nerf bars. Not only are they constructed of durable, rustproof black powder coated aluminum, but the black molded plastic endcaps also keep out moisture to help prevent internal corrosion.
Installing the bars is easy. A mounting kit is included, featuring custom brackets that bolt onto existing holes in your vehicle's rocker panels - no drilling necessary.

How's it going, Ryan here at etrailer.com. Today, we're going to be taking a look at the line of Westin, R5 Nerf bars. Today on our truck we have the polished stainless steel, however, there are other finishes available. So it's really just going to depend on your taste. Nerf bars we're originally designed to help protect the rockers on the underside of your truck, but things have come a long way since then, and now we're going to primarily use them to help us get in and out of the truck. Since today's trucks do sit so high and as an added bonus, we get that visual enhancement as well.
It really does make it that much easier to climb in and out.And since it does come to our back door as well, one of the things that I personally like to use it for, we open our door up, kind of gives us a height advantage here in a way, if we have anything in the bed of our truck, we can grab it really easily. Just one of the things many people don't really think about when it comes to these Nerf bars, it gives you a really good spot to clean off your muddy or snowy boots before you hop up in your truck. Just come up and kick the dirt or mud off and hop right in. Compared to some of the other ones available. One of the things I noticed that is different about these, this is going to have this cover that goes over the brackets.
And that's just one of the things, in my opinion, the small details that they didn't forget about to make our whole package look more complete.On the end of our Nerf bars, we're going to have a cap, and not only does that, give us a little bit cleaner look, but these are also going to help prevent any water debris from your tires, getting slung up inside, making sure that these are going to stay in good shape for a long time. The subheads himself, are going to have a little bit of grip and that's going to help eliminate any potential slips when you're climbing in and out of the truck. Now, the Nerf bars are going to be five inches wide. So it's going to be plenty room to get your foot up on here. Unlike some of the other style of running boards, which are very narrow and you hop up on it and your foot seems to almost roll off of it.One advantage these have over a motorized style running board is that these are going to be reliable and once you have them in place.
You know they're going to work every time since there's no moving components. Finally, one of the really nice things about these, is that they're going to be very straightforward to get installed. That'll finish up our look at the line of Westin, R5 Nerf bars..
