That discussion has been ongoing for some time. I have a large guard on the rear of ours and swear by it, but many do not. I think the problem may be that some are mounted too low and as a result scrape up stones from the road and make the situation worse. Ours is mounted so that on the highway it is a good eight inches off the surface. I have had no problems with rock chips.
