What PIAA 9007s to get?
I have the Ion Crystals for my fog lights and I currently have a set of silverstars. Eventually they'll burn out. I enjoy my silverstars but I want to test the water.

I'm looking for the whitest light possible... but I'd always take a blue tint if it is done well and dosen't look ricey.
Don't say go HID either, I plan to, but with a set of EDM housings.

I personally wouldnt get either of the lights that are listed on that site. IF you had to get one, i would get the Super White 3800K bulbs. it looks like it has less tint than the other light bulb that is offered in 9007. the more tint, the less light. yeah, like the website says, the yellow light will be gone, but so will all the usable light. any tint that is on the bulb will acutally cut the light output. also, all that info about 55w = 110w is fake. The bulbs run at 55 watts. If i were you i would get another set of Silverstars or try to locate a set or Osram Silverstars. they are the European market Silverstars that we dont get in the states. Powerbulbs.com sells them but they dont have them in you size.BTW, heres a link to a thread that talks about bulbs w/ tint.https://www.i-club.com/forums/showth...threadid=46970

I tried dozens of different types of bulbs to try and imitate the look of HID's. The PIAA suck as they are dot legal and they still look like stock from the outside and inside also. Talking about the Extreme Whites. The closest thing I have gotten to HID without being pulled over by the 5/0 are the Mtecs Superwhite with the 4x brightness. Make sure your wiring can handle the extra wattage as I fried the harness in my Spec-V. They are pure white and almost as white as my STI's though not as powerful. Piaa is way too expensive. Mtecs are cheap and of good quality and I haven't had a problem yet except for that harness thing. If you are worried, get the 2x brightness ones. Less wattage.
