Default Help me decide please

I am looking to buy new slip-ons for my 2010 Road King. I am looking for sound (loud) and quality. To continue with my blackout work, it needs to be black. I had Rush and Jackpots before and was never really impressed with them. I have narrowed my choices to three;

Vance & Hines "Widow"

or

Vance & Hines "Blackout Rounds"

http://www.vanceandhines.com/product...ut-rounds.html

or

All three are excellent. I think the V&H sound the best.

Not sure what you're definition of "loud" is, but you may end up being disappointed no matter what you buy unless you change the head pipes. The catalytic convertor built into the stock head pipes on 2010 and 2011 absorbs A LOT of sound before it even gets to the slip ons.

Remember, if your going with slip-ons and want to add headers later, Rineharts slip-ons are not compatible with there True Dual headers. You would have to replace the whole 9 yards. With Vance and Hines, you can buy there slip-ons now and then add their headers later without replacing the mufflers.
