Nokya 7000K light bulbs?

someone gave be a pair of Nokya 7000K "arctic white" bulbs for me car. The type number is 9007, which is the correct one for my bugeye, but I dont know about the wattage. The website says it draws 60/75, and the Suby manual says to use 60/55 watt bulbs. Should I put these in my car or give em back/sell them?

site with info on the bulbs:

Don't use them. The Nokya bulbs have been known to cause overheating and harness/connector damage.

other than that they are great bulbs... you can beef up the harness' a little bit by putting bigger wire in the harness and it will be perfectly fine!!

well seeing as I dont even need new bulbs, I'd rather not screw around with the harness just to have HID look-alikes, when I do need new bulbs I'll just get ones that are the correct wattage.
