Help me with Lightbar decision

so i ordered this bumper



the 30'' light bar cutout makes the bar sit kinda more back so im trying to decide if i should order one with flood / spot or combo

i really cant decide

ill be mostly driving in mountains so it makes sense to have flood light
but because the bar is sitting behind and a lil back the light might not be as wide as if it was with nothing infront of it ?

if I get spot only how does it look from being at bottom like that ? as in how would i see it as a driver ? in other words is spot better from roof than the low bumper position ?

or fuk it just get combo and hope for best ?


im looking at this bar btw

What other lighting are you running? Aftermarket fogs (Diode/Baja)? Ditch lights? Roof rack lightbar?

I put in a behind the grille 24" lightbar, driving pattern, and it works very well for my purposes. Allows me to use my dims and fogs (Diode SS3) plus the lightbar which throws a lot of light forward. Anything lower than the hood I would go with a combo pattern.
