Default Highway peg reccomendations without crash bar

I am looking for a set of adjustable highway pegs to mount without a crash bar. Is there a set that is better than any others? Any suggestions?

Either to the floorboards or frame but not really sure what my options are.

I'm on my cell, on the mobile version. I can't tell which forum this is, or what bike you have. I use kuryakyn cruise arms on my heritage. If you have a softail with floorboards, I can elaborate on what I had to do to make them work.

Kuryakyn Mark IV Cruise Arms. I had them on my 07 Road King Custom and my 09 Deluxe. Love them, get the long ones, they were perfect for me and held up well.

They won't fit with oil coolers or with the crash bar. I could not get them for my 12 Glide because of the oil cooler... It's a shame, would have bought them again in a heartbeat.

I had to fab a mounting block for my Mark IV Cruise arms, between the frame and the arms, to extend them out about an inch and up a little higher. They were so close to the brake, I couldn't mash the brake enough to be safe. But I love them now and I will not take them off! I worry about not having the crash bars, but the other day I didn't get the kickstand down all the way, and it folded up and the bike went down. To my great relief the floorboards kept it from going all the way down. No damage at all! I don't know what would have happened had it went over to the right, and I hope I never find out!
