Default Off road lighting

Finally got my roof rack and was wondering if you all could recommend some good brands for lights.

I use tractor floods. Cheap so when they get broken it's not a big deal and since you're going slow off-road plenty of light.
They aren't cool though.

Hellas and Lightforce are premier brands in the industry, but not cheap. Get what you pay for

Lifetime LED makes some nice looking stuff. Its lower end but everything looks to be a quality light. I just bought a 900 lumen 2" LED flood light for a rear work light. Wiring it up this week. Figured for $42 bucks I can't go wrong.

Lifetime LED rear light is very nice...I plan on welding a second light tab on the other side of the rack and putting a 2nd one in!

back on topic. I recently had a death match with 2 roof rack lights versus a bois d' arc.
aftermath=
replaced the lights with el cheapo from HF (2 100watt for $30.) that is the way I will go from now on.
the perform fine, perfect if you take in account the price.
