i have the luminics on my mustang right now. they have more of a blueish tint than the silverstars. honestly, they are a bit too blue for my tastes, but my stockers needed replacing. if you want more of a blueish, fake hid tint, go with the lumincs, if you want a bright white stockish look, go with the silverstars. i cant wait to see how much 6000k kit looks. i thinkt he lumis have more of an 8000k tint..

Are they alot brighter than the stock head lights, how do they compare to the Silverstar ultra Whites though. I dont really care what the color is. im about to paint my car orange so blue or white dont matter. So like he said you bought those Luminics Ultra Whites and they are blue? I kind of want a blue tint and cant really afford Hids right now, can you buy different color luminc bulbs. and if so where at. But my main question is are they brighter than stock and how much if any brighter are they than the Silverstar Ultra.

I drive alot of back roads to and from work with alot of Hills and Twisty corners. And have seen lots of deer. And we have Amish. Im scared im either goin to hit a deer or an amish with these stock lights so i need to upgrade.

Are they alot brighter than the stock halogans though. I was on there sight and they affor Ultra White, Pure Blue, JDM yellow, and Ultra Violet. Are they all the same brightness jsut different colors. Someone was telling me before that Yellow is a real good night time bulb and makes it easier to see things.

Do you know if they are better than the Silverstars though, cause like i said i need something brighter for these back roads and cant afford a HID kit right now.

hm. your best bet would be to go to youtube, and search under luminics, and silverstars. youll see some examples. honestly, either one would be brighter than stock, and either one should be bright enough for you on back roads, esp. if you use the high beams.

I would definently go with Sylvania Silverstars. I had luminics for awhile and they looked nice but they just don't put out enough light so i switched to silverstars. Silverstars will give you much better visibility.
