HID Color Poll

Ok, I absoluetly cant decide which i want from redlinemax.
I know, I know, I am dumb, but at least it could produce some interesting flamage. BTW, they are 6500k H4 for cefiro lenses.

just get the regular 4300k OEM stock color. Nice pure white without the riced out color. They're much brighter than that stupid 6000k purple/blue and up junk. The higher the kelvin, the less lumens u're getting out of the kit. Just my 2 cents...

Yeah, I would stay away from anything over 6500k personally. 8500k seems pretty ridiculus, I imagine visibility in the rain would be comprimised significantly. Oh, and go with blue, purple can sometimes resemble pink supposedly.

well, considering i already paid for the cefiro deal, i am getting 6500k no matter what, seemed like a fine compromise. i just need to choose a color.

I though the color was determined by the temperature of the bulb?

I have the Hanabi 6000K and it looks a little purple when they startup, but after they're warm they're real white.

Depends if you want function or looks. I love the look of my hanabi 8000ks, but they are BLUE, not just a tint of blue.

HRRMMM lemme think.....maybe if i was a girl or a homo i would get purple. Other than that i would have to opt for the blue.

Unless your car is like purple for some strange reason. Which would not be a problem at all im just saying......then there would be a reason other than being a girl or a homo to get the purple...

The more color the light produces, the less effective HID's are to the road.

I had the 6000K Blue kit and sold it. They were bright but in the rain, the light dispursement to the road sucked. My 4500K kit lights up the road nicely.
