Do you think the Mopar tube doors would look ok with stock rubicon?
I’m wondering how practical they are too. Probably not much but they look bad ass.

Your Jeep, your choice. I personally don’t see the point other than styling, but others love them.
They would definitely look better with soft top or no top though. Hardtop would look odd in my opinion.

I agree. I would use them with my soft top which would likely be thrown back open.

I like the look of tube doors but I don't really get them. Maybe to keep dogs from jumping out?

One of the things I like about going doorless is not having to deal with...doors.

Are there any states that require doors, and if so do tube doors qualify?

That’s a good question. Didn’t think about that.
I know here in NY I see footless Jeep’s all the time.

I think I read somewhere that PA has a law that says if something came from the factory with doors, that they were required, but that it really wasn’t enforced on Jeeps much. That’s just internet hearsay though.

Pennsylvania is a goofy state and may or may not require doors, depending on how the cop pulling you over interprets the law. I’m thinking of buying a set of Mopar doors and pointing at the Mopar stamp when pulled over because of a clause in the state regs requiring doors to be “of a type, blah, blah, blah, OEM.”

But honestly I may just see if I can get away without them...

I’m not sure if I’m comfortable driving with no doors. My first Jeep. I’ll find out as soon as it warms up.

I like the look and functionality of the Bestop core doors. They are only out for the JK atm but the JL should be released this summer. They are pricey though $$$
