forgot rain, i am a blind man driving in rain. lol

3k ideal for fogs.......

Once u go above 6k in your headlights it is gonna be more bling than function...especially in heavy rain at night.....it will suck.

3k foglights

8K FTMFW!!!

Mustang-10k, 3k Fogs
X-Runner-10k Hi/lo, 3k Fogs
R6-8k

-Ant.

i rock 8k my g/f rocks the pink ones

10k FTW chicks dig the blue!!

For pure output 4300 or 5K is going to be your best bet. However 6K offers a nice 'hid color' while only sacrificing ~300 Lumens in output. Hardly noticeable by most drivers.

When you get up to 8K you are going for color but the output is still vastly superior to OEM Halogen. 10K, 12K and getting up to 30K. The deep blue, purple and pink lights you do notice a lose in output. You also will start to run into eye fatique on long night drivers with the high Kelvin temps.

3000k

30k bitches

nothing above 4300 k.. I wouldn't say anything about 6000k, but beyond that?

God damn there's a whole bunch of rice boys here..

Epic post!

LOL@Frog - no shit man, haha.

I have 4.3k headlights and 55W 6K fogs.
If I had to do it again I'd go 3k, but I didn't know they existed back then (maybe they didn't) lol.

I know my shite about lighting. Too many retrofits and the like. How many E28s do you know of with E-Code Headlamps, a double relay harness and 55W HIDs ;)

well yeah, because everyone knows the color of your headlights sums up the entire concept/stats of the car:nautjerk: ....ass

it does depend on the car and color of the car.. i have some 14 k (or something like that) which were a purple/pink on my black ej once and loved them.. then i tried puttin them on my sonoma eg and hated them.. but as a general rule of thumb, 6k is best.. its what im rockin now!
