anything over 8500 is excessively bright...but its so much easier to find stuff over that..for the same price as the lower brightness stuff

On ebay you can find mccullochs *which is a better brand* for 310$ and mecca tune *not so name brand* ones too for 310$

i got mine from a guy 310$ free shipping, if i were you id go with some 7000k's its like idea for everyday driving, and not worrying about cops =)
