HIDS - 6000K or 8000K
Please write down the pros and cons of both hid lights and that would be great. Also please state why you would go with 6000K or 8000K. If you recommend a brand to buy from, please type that in!
Thanks.
Thanks.

Anything much above 4500K and you're getting less useable light. On a dark and rainy night, you'll be hard pressed to see well especially the road and lane edges unless you have some 3000K fogs.
Post a pic of what your car looks like when you install the 6000K or higher HIDS. That way, I'll try to NOT bash out your headlights like I want to do to ALL of those azzholes with the annoying blue headlights.

Ditto on the light output from Nuke. As you go above that 5000k threshold you start to lose overall output. The 5000-6000k range is perfect for providing a very neutral white light which is the most useable light for your eyes at night.
