Default Best non HID bulbs

Looking to replace my old stock bulbs with something brighter. Not looking into changing over to HIDs. So was just wondering what is the best bulb to go with.

Do the ultras make very much of a difference compared to the stock. My high beam suck.

Philips XTreme power. Non coated bulbs whereas the Silverstars have a coating and reduced life. The XTremes are yellow like you'd expect a halogen to be but they are quite bright.

Love these Wagner's. Definitely brighter and can see better than the stock ones, and its not just my eyes playing tricks on me. Sorry no night pics. Have had them for about a year now.

Here's one thread about them: https://www.f150forum.com/f38/new-he...-bulbs-243658/
