Default Offroad/Driving Light Help and Poll!

So, I got a pair of 3'' Pilot brand halogen driving lights from my friends dad for $10. They were brand new and for the small size I am pleased with their output, but I want more. I figure they're cheap and I like them so I'll wire them to be reverse lights. Now I have a switch and everything wired up for 2 or 3 lights to go on my bumper, so I can just swap out the lights for some bigger, higher ouput lights. What I am looking at right now are:

A) 2 Hella 700 series lights
B) 2 Hella 500FF series lights
C) 3 Pro Comp 6'' 55w lights

The Pro Comps are about $30 a piece, and I've heard good things. I had a friend wire up some Hella 500FF's on his rover and when he flicked them on they were bright as day. I don't really think I need 3 lights, but it looks cool, and I haven't found somewhere to buy Hella's individually so I'd have to just get 2. Now, with the 500FF kit and 700FF kit will there be any major differences? I know they are different sizes but will that effect the focus of the lights or will the 700FF's be brighter? All 3 of these options run about $80 ish plus shipping, so your help and experience is appreciated and needed. THANK YOU!!!!!

I've been looking at Hella black magic series to put behind my truck grill.
