Welcome, I like wheels. I like amp boards but the factory steps protect your paint. If you plan to take off-road I’d do some PPF or mud flaps.
It will see offroad and I was torn on the AMP's because of the paint. I'm thinking about experimenting with plasti dip to see how easy it comes off. My unintelligent thinking is step 1 apply polish, like some turdle wax, step 2 plasti dip the doors, step 3 pray that it comes off. Imma find me some neighbors car to test my thesis and see how it goes. Then there is Track Armour, I haven't played with that yet, but it seems promising from what I read.

I've used Track Armour and it works really well. I'd skip the wax and do ceramic coating, however that isn't paint chip proof. Ask me how I know. ;)

Another member from cali, welcome! I agree with the others here about the amp steps however. The factory boards provide protection from rocks and car doors.
