Expert Reply:

The Westin PRO TRAXX Oval Nerf Bars - 4" - Black Powder Coated Steel # 21-22775 and Westin Platinum Series Oval Nerf Bars - 4" - Black Powder Coated Steel # 21-2775 are very similar and both fit your 2018 Toyota Tacoma Double Cab. As you can see in the attached photo, the Pro Traxx has a slight curve at the end of the bars, while the Platinum Series has a more pronounced curve at the end. Also, the Pro Traxx has a more rigid and bumpy step pad and the Platinum Series has a somewhat smoother step pad with lines running down the center.

I personally think the Pro Traxx version is more attractive since it follows the body line of the vehicle and does not curve on the ends as much. I also think the more rigid step on the Pro Traxx gives a slightly more aggressive appearance so I would go with this over the Platinum Series. I attached demonstration videos for you to check out.
