Default Highway pegs

So here I sit staring at the monitor looking at page after page of highway pegs and options... I have a pretty significant trip this spring and know that I am going to need to stretch the legs a little so I need a good set. What I am looking for is what you long distance guys/gals prefer in highway pegs. I am 6'3" and having a good set of pegs is IMHO probably important...So if you have an opinion send it this way, thanks.

I also need to stretch out. I installed a set of Kuryakan highway boards positioned right below a set of HD pegs, mounted on the engine guards (Ultra). So now, I can stretch out ( have then where I am straight-legged) with the boards or I can move my legs and feet up in the aira little with the pegs. Best of both worlds.

I also have the Kuryakan pegs...I've got the longer ones with the wider pads. Great for highway travel, but quality is not that good. Chrome has peeled off the pads, not the pegs. I checked out the Harley pegs yesterday and didn't care for chrome job...had imperfections...made in China. I'd go for some quality stuff from USA, but haven't seen any on web?
