Higher looks good, but is less effective.Also, like Mika said his 5000k high beams are bluer than his 6000k low's, makes you wonder how accurate these cheap HID claimed light temp's are?

I can't fault my 6000K Headlights at all, they are awesome and for the price I paid, you can't beat it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
