Nokya vs. Silverstars

Just curious if anybody has had both of these bulbs. If you have, which ones did you prefer?
I keep hearing that the Nokya bulbs are much better. I have the Silverstars and they just don't seem to light up the road the way that $60.00 bulbs should!
They also suck in the rain

Any opinions?

no one asked you. I think it is worth it. If you don't want stock yellow bulbs but want to be able to see at night and in the rain then the HIDS are your only option...

All colored light tward to the blue end of the light spectrum sucks for visability in the rain, (maybe light tward the red end too). Yellow light is the best in the rain. Its all about the light waves. You can't have your cake and eat it too.

cake...where? what about really white bulbs, not those weird ones with the blue tint. HIDs are cool, but a lot of people cant afford them. im not saying pop in bulbs will be the best at night, or be as good as HIDs...but are any aftermarket bulbs worth it?
