I had PIAA Xtreme whites before the Silverstars I have now, and the Silverstars look and perform okay. The Xtreme whites looked much better but were crap in rain. It doesn't rain much in AZ, so it didnt bother me.

I have the Sylvania Silverstars 9005 for my high beams. Although I have PIAAs for my fogs, I went with Silverstars for my highs because I felt they would be more reliable than the PIAAs.

I installed the Silverstars about a month ago. Very pleased with them. Whiter than stock. Not an exact match with the HID's but not too far off. I have not tried the PIAA's, and probably won't cause of their high price and questionable reliability.
