You need to be more specific about where you are measuring your quads. 27 inches around the center of the thigh(or lower) isn't too bad. Around the top, it's hard to say. If the top of your thigh is 27 but your mid-lower thigh is closer to 23 then they probably need some work(like mine). It's tough to build a big balanced thigh if you're over 6 ft(I am too..... I'm not sure exactly how tall I am but when I met Arnold, we were the exact same height). Squats usually don't work as well for us taller guys.... We end up with turnip thighs. I think we need a little bit higher reps with as much weight as we can handle(up to 25 reps). Lower reps just end up working the butt hard and wiping out our knees. I've been killing myself for years trying to balance my quads(My upper thigh was around 29 inches but there was nothing above my knees.... my quads looked like shit). One trick I've leared that gives the illusion of good wheels is to really emphasize the calves. If a guy has great calves, his quads can be very lackluster and people will still think he has good thighs. Hit your calves every workout and make them as round, hard, and vascular as possible. Once your calves really stand out, everyone will think you have great legs...... even if your quads aren't the greatest.
