forward controls

I guess I'm too tall. 6' 3, 34" inseam, and I can't imagine riding a bike with mids for more than 5 min. It hurts.
But its what YOU want, no one can say what will work for you, except you.
I realize you are asking for advice, and really, you got a try a few. Test ride simmilar bikes if you can with mids and forwards. See what feels good.

When I got mine it had the mids on it but my legs cramped up something fierce. I had ordered the forwards and had to wait for them to get in. I can't imagine riding without them...

I got +3 forwards for my HDMM, it stretches me out really comfortably, no need for pegs... They also function as a theft preventer, half the people I know can't even reach the dang things. The drawback is it's very hard to lift your butt when you see a pothole coming that you cannot avoid; especially on a rigid.

I have a 29" inseam, purchased my Low rider with forwards on it, could not get thoes dam things off fast enough. I even had to modify my highway pegs that are mounted on my engine guard. Had to move them a tad closer, so i didn't have to reach for them.
I love my mids. But you'll have to actually sit on some machines and see how they feel, Its really the only way to tell for yourself. Good luck.
Searching is a great part of the journey

Like most have said.. it comes down to what feels comfortable for you. As for the comments of needing mids for aggressive riding... I disagree heartily.. I have no issues riding aggressively with forward controls.
I also have Kury SwingWing pegs, which function like a mini-board when folded in, and like a set of highyway pegs when folded out.
