Rough Country 8 led grill lights

The lights are very bright (6,400 lumens for the pair) and I'm pleased; however, they don't throw quite as far as I expected. Oh darn - now I have to install more lights. They are 'semi-spots' and in all fairness, mine are currently adjusted a bit too low. The wife and everyone who's seen how much light they generate has been very impressed. All around, I give these lights a 9/10 for ease of installation, super clean "factory installed" look, and light output. I'd give them a 10 if they threw a little farther.
Hope this helps you and future folks considering these lights. They're pretty great for the price!

I installed the Rough Country grille lights about 3 weeks ago. Installation was fairly simple. I am very pleased with the cleanness of how they look and the output of them, not to mention the price. I think mine are adjusted a little too low, but even with how they are adjusted now, they cover up all of the output of my halogen headlights.

I mocked up some KC HiLites Flex 10" LED lights in my grill for a test fit. They do fit but don't offer a vehicle specific mounting kit. Looked like all they needed was an L bracket to mount to the grill. They put out more light than the Rigid SR series. Don't be fooled by raw lumens, that's light measured right at the source, you want to know how much is projected forward. The Rigid 10" SR only has 593 Lux @ 10M while the KC Flex has 1150 Lux @ 10M. You can change the trim ring color to match your truck.

I don't think it is a case of "folks not knowing what they are talking about". Those are just super expensive lights, I am sure they are fantastic, but are they nearly 10X as fantastic as the rough countries? Doubt it, but I guess that depend on how much you want to spend on it.

It boils down to how much performance do you want and are willing to pay for. I have been playing with super high output led lights for 20 years.

I suppose as many of you up there are armed as we are here in WY...but I was going to weld a bar across the nuts if it was going to stay on the truck. Because, yes, otherwise it would be easy to remove. Where I live there are more cows than people and the cows don't seem interested in my lights. But that's a completely different story when we are racing in southern NV.
