Looking to buy bulbs for 2008 maxima with hid factory headlights. I am wanting the crisp white color..don't want the blue/purple look but do not want to chance getting any yellow color either.... What color temp am I looking for? I am thinking 6,oook..any recommendations?

5000K. Thank me later:

I have 6000k in my 2008 and they do have a blueish color to them. Its not overly obnoxious, so if you want to go with not so much of a blue tint, I would say stay below that, but above 3000k

 

4300k - keep it to OEM spec or 5000k if you don't like the yellow.

 

+1 on 5000k.

Either those or these.

With the 5000k Morimotos you'll lose a bit of brightness compared to OEM 4300k bulbs, with the Osrams you will have equal (maybe even greater) brightness. Just a matter of how much you're willing to spend and if you're willing to sacrifice a little brightness.

 

Thanks Guys...I appreciate it. I would have went with 6000k. before asking. I believe I am gonna go with the 5000k after your input..thx again.

 

4300K is OEM and best light output. doesnt look ****ing ricer.

 

4300K, 5000K, 6000K /Thread...

 

Osram 5000k CBI

 

6000k

 

6ks on my 08 and I love them!

 

That's really going to help the OP decide.

4300/5000.

 

6000k HIDS and 6000k fogs....both DDM Tuning kits

 

Man up and get a 6K. its Blue/purple. just put em in my car. they are nice as hell.

 

Color temp is preferential. What looks nice to one person may look ricey to another.

The request was for blue/white/stock color, NOT blue/purple.
