Question:
Im interested in purchasing set of nerf bars for my 2021 Chevy Colorado. Im concerned about the rust resistance between the mild steel, aluminum or stainless steel. I plan on keeping my truck for another 7-10 years. I like the Westin products. I live on the coast in NJ salt in the air. Do you have any recommendations? Thanks

Expert Reply:
The Westin PRO TRAXX Oval Nerf Bars item # 21-54015 you were looking at are powdered coated so they stand up to rust pretty well. The main concern for longevity on these step bars are scratches and dents getting through the finish and exposing the bar metal to the elements. If you aren't going to be off-roading and beating up the bars then you will have no problem getting at least 10 years out of these.
You will have similar concerns with the chrome Westin Signature Series Round Nerf Bars item # 25-4010.
You won't have to worry about any rust issues if you were to go with a stainless steel set like item # 21-54010.
All three of these nerf bars are confirmed to fit the crew cab models of the 2021 Chevy Colorado. I have linked a review video below.
