Default tractor lights for offroad?

has anyone ever tried using lights for tractors as offroad lights? been kind of thinking about this as a cheaper alternative to good offroad lights. Ive been looking at something similar to these:https://www.amazon.com/Blazer-C123-U...tractor+lights
My question is would these be as bright as actual offroad lights or very bright at all? Any input is appreciated. Thanks!

That link isn't working, but honestly I can't imagine them being all that much cheaper than some lower end dedicated off road lights.

Hella 500s are only a little over $50 from us right now: http://www.autoanything.com/lights/65A1325A0A0.aspx

And you can get decent LED light cubes for dirt cheap right now: http://www.autoanything.com/lights/p...led-light-cube

You're spoiled for choice here, it pretty much just comes down to how much you want to spend.

Here is a better link: https://www.amazon.com/Blazer-C123-U...tractor+lights

The reason Im looking at these is that I could get 4 of them for less than the price of 2 hella or kc lights. I have seen the light cubes but i prefer the look of the round lights. Im just wondering if anyone knows if these would be bright enough for offroad use and how they stack up against other offroad lights in terms of brightness.

For reference, depending on your exact model, your headlights will be 55-65 watts. Those lights linked are 35 watts, and probably have a very wide flood beam, seeing as though they are work lights. These will not add much over your stock headlights + foglights (if you have them).

If you want them for looks, then you really can't go wrong. If you want them for their intended purpose, then I would spend a few extra bucks and do it right the first time around.

There's no such thing as free lunch.
