I used the boots (which are more like skirts) because they are open on the bottom unlike the Rancho's. Just remember in clean up to spray up the skirt to blast all the mud out...

I think you should use the skirts. I drive on road a lot more than off. With that said this keeps the shock posts clean to prevent premature wear on the seals.

Just my $.02...
