1998 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer

I have a 1998 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer, if I remove the running boards, what will it look like? Will it be rust? Will holes be visible?

Welcome to this forum! You might have holes if the running boards were installed with sheet metal screws. Water accumulates in that area so there might be rust under it.

Will any holes be visible?

You could use spot putty & touch up paint.

Where would I purchase the paint?

Any auto parts store sells touch up paint. Body shop supply stores have better quality paint.

Snow

I have a 1998 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer 4X4. I have new BF Goodrich KO2 tires on it. The original size. How will it handle snow? Thanks
