Running Boards

I am trying to decide what running boards to get. I am a 260 lb old fart that will use the boards to get in and out of the truck every time. The truck is a 48 and lets say a semi darksider. When done I see the truck being driven a couple of time a week. Will fiberglass boards hold up with everyday use? Are the $290.00 dollar ebay specials any good? If steel, who make a set that fits right, looks good and is not priced completely out of sight? I want the ribbed boards.
Thanks for any help.

I'll let you know once I have them in my hands. Just need to personally confirm the condition.
