Default please help me w new bulbs

i have a 2005 f150 fx4. im wanting new bulbs. what bulb will i like better the piaa xtreme white h13 or the nokya artic white h13? i currently have the nokya bulb n but its not the brightest but i love the way it looks. i also have the wiring harness adapter to handle the high wattage. will the piaa make that much more of a difference? if there bightness isnt that much i want to stick w the nokyas since they are less than half the price....what have u guys seen and liked? thanks

get a nice 6k hid kit, not a cheap one off ebay but a good one, you can also get projector headlights to help and adjust the light onto the road and not all over...i.e. cut off line

get hi-low conversion, that means its basically a dual ballast, so you still have the option of your lows and or highs....i would do the fogs too just for the fact it matches...the 6000k's are the white white lights, that have a slight blue tinge (noticeable to other drives not yourself) all you see if brilliant blue white, you will be very happy with these lights..there a great company with great CS and awesome products

would u change any of the other available options they have like the power wattage from 35w to 50w? what do u think about the 8000k's? is the visability that much less with them? thnks
