Don't want my pipes to overpower my radio. Can anyone comment which ones are louder, 3.5" or 4.0"?
Thanks

That is also how the Rinehart folks described to me when I met them at the Lone Star Rally a couple of weeks ago.
You can't go wrong either way.
You can only go wrong if you choose another brand.
Just my opinion.

Plus one, having had both, I prefer the 4" as more touring friendly and IMO was quite a bit deeper. Performance is identical, they both run the same size baffles

Thanks for the replies, looks like I'm going with the 4.0".

I have a set of barely used 3.5" if anyone wants them.

Thanks

FIRST THING I DID TO MY BIKE WAS ADD RINEHART SLIP-ONS BECAUSE DEALERS SUGGESTION. I HAD NEVER HEARD OF 'EM. THEY DO WHAT I WANTED. LOUD, GOOD TONE, LOUD, GOOD CHROME, LOUD, LOOK GOOD, LOUD. WHAT DO I HAVE, 3.5 OR 4.0"? NO WHERE ON BOX OR MUFFLER IS LISTED. WHERE DO YOU MEASURE AND HOW? PLEASE DON'T SEND ME TO PURCHASE A CALIPER !
