[QUOTE="MacGuyver, post: 427841, member: 18877"] I've had rocks hit my from window of course, but are you not having the nick 'repaired' so it doesn't turn into a crack? My insurance covers that with no deductible. Hell, there is a company here that will come to you and do it, even at my work. For me at least, stock tires seem to cause this the most. I once watched some debris get tossed forward from my tire then arc up and into my windshield. I believe it passed between the bumper and the plastic fender. I have 33s on my current jeep and it's been quite awhile since something has hit my windshield, since before the upgrade in fact. This could be a false... negative.. but here's one thing you could try. I had a buddy that would put black rubber matting, 1/4 inch stuff used on farms in the gap above the bumper with stainless screws. I wonder if the JL Sports that come with an air dam in that spot have lower instances of rock window. [/QUOTE]
