    The higher the number doesnt make it brigher. The higher the number the more BLUE it is and actually decreases light output. HIDs are meant to recreate natural daylight (54-5600k). A 6000k kit would have the highest output. It would have the "cool blue color" that all the ricers aim for, but it would be the best output wise. Just an FYI

    Actually you are wrong, the 10000K put out the most light, however most of it is UV light that we cant see, so you are right and wrong. I had to be a jackass, but he is right, 5600K produces the most visual light ranging mostly from 400nm-600nm which is the most responding to the human retina, which only has 2% quantum efficency. I had to excersize what i learned in astronomy

    I sat the bilsteins, The HIDs are nice, but require night driving to be useful.....I dont drive alot at night because I attract random wildlife (4 deer, 5 years...many dogs, rabbits, and opossum also) Seeing them on the roadside doesnt stop them unfortunantly.
    The suspension is a 24/7 mod, the lights are much less, and will INCREASE the bugs hittin the car.
    Just my $.02
