Added some wheels, though a little beat, they look decent from far. Should I remove the Running Boards? Is it easy to do?

it's easy to do... like 6-8 bolts on each side. But if you look, they are just as low as your front bumper because the bottom valance on the bumper. If you remove the running boards and don't replace them with side skirts or other steps, the front end looks heavy and/or too low

I've been contemplating putting em back on my 08 denali, since I lowered I don't need them just not sure if they would look better.

see how the boards flow with the line from the front? Without them, SUVs look nose heavy. the 15+'s do the same thing, but worse. Some of them are actually cutting the front valance so it flows better
