Need a little info from you experienced PIAA bulb users...rather than reading seller's charts and marketing textuals... rather hear it from real people.

I'm looking at H3 55W bulbs, and the regular wattage 65/45w 9004's for the headlights. (fogs in my 95 max are glass housing) (i have 97 housings for headlights though so plastic lens)



PIAA Xtreme White Plus (4150K) vs PIAA Super Plasma GT-X (5000K)?

1) Which is brighter output on the road between the two?

2) a: Do the super plasma's look more white/bluish/purplish or are they an even bluish/purple or bluish/white? b: The Xtreme White's, same question.


Thanks.


I KNOW YOU ALL LOVE THESE HALO SUPER WHITE BULB THREADS.
(ps, yes I did a search, only found three threads - old ones at that so any newer info and further years of experience is useful / one thread was just for selling some used ones / other was for a GD from 2003 for some other brand but 100ws / third was just talking about the Plasmas themselves)

I'm guessing everyone here is going to tell you they both suck. They probably do =/

As far as light output anyways.

I would hope that no one would simply say "they suck" or "get HID". Because I'm not doing that. And I'm sure there has to be some people here who have used these before as PIAA are a well known brand... so.. at THIS level Compare the two between each other.

FWIW I have a set of PIAA 9004's running that are over 8 years old.
Light output it fine, nothing is going to give you great light in a 9004 setup.
I think I got my $$$ worth with those bulbs.

Really? Do the PIAA extreme whites sell in basic auto stores like Shucks or Autozone?

nice.. seems lots of people go for the yellow bulbs eh.


Anyways, I think I've decided on the Xtreme White Plus H3's and depending on how they look i'll grab some in 9004 as well. I'll no doubt post pics comparing stock H3s to it.. and also if I grab the 9004s it will be compared to ebay "6000K" halo 9004 bulbs heh.

I currently have the PIAA Xtreme White H4 bulbs in my headlights. It has a nice white light with very little blue tint. Same applied when I had the H3 bulbs in my fog lights. Now I have Nokya yellow H3 bulbs.
