Default 8000K or 6000K

Do 6000K have a minor blue tone like a light blue? or is it pure white, because if it does then that would be my choice if not id go for the 8000k but i dont know if its too blue? Help me out, what exactly does 6000k offer and 8000k

Ive read on some websites that the 6000's are the brightest, but on Autobadges website he claims no setup is brighter than the other. Any ideas?

I would vote for the 8k or 10k personally.

8000k is the brightest color temperature. i spoke with a manufacturer of the company that made the lights before i purchased them, even though i still went with 10k cause i wanted more of a blue tint. and colors will range depending where you get your HID's from. my friend and i both have 10k but his look alot whiter with a hint of purple where as mine are definately blue.
