Start going over 5000 and it gets blue, which might look cool to hipsters but is less efficient
8000 is just silly
see i want it more for aestheticsQuote:

Just some food for thought coming from someone who has had all 4 - 5000k is pretty much the highest I would personally go as I think it's the perfect balance between light output and colour. First kit I bought was 6000k and when I swapped them for 5000k I immediately noticed the difference at night. I also bought a car with 8000k HIDs fitted and they were pretty terrible IMO. Immediately swapped them out for for some OSRAM Night Breakers (halogen bulbs) and they were genuinely better for night driving.
But again, if you never really leave the city and you really prefer the look, then 6000 or 8000k will give you the look you're searching for. Just keep in mind if you use 55w ballasts that the colour effectively shifts down a step. So 8000k goes down to 6000k. I recommend sticking to 35w though.
in that case then pick a colour ...Quote:

my recommendation is 6000k. white with the slight tinge of blue
Totall agree with Hondarally. In photos 4300k might look dull but in real life gives a nice bluish tinge and extreme clarityQuote:
