beside the terrible color (in my opinion), i have to admitthey're sharper and a bit brighter than my previous blue bulbs. but DEFINITELY NOT worth $40 (after $10 car show rebate) for a pair when i can get hipers for $15, which shows more difference than silverstars.
I know where your coming from. When I swapped out my dad's Optiblue for the Silverstar I was like :wtf: this looks yellowish. I had to check again just to make sure it was Silverstars that I put in and not stock.
But trust me when I say the Silverstar light is pure white and the only reason why they look yellowish is because your so use to the hyperwhite/bluish white. Just suck it up for a bit and once your eyes adjust to the Silverstar light you'll notice its whiter then stock, but not bluish like the hyperwhites that your use to.
It takes time getting use to it. The whole reason why you get Silverstar is the light output. Its whiter then stock, but brighter then hyperwhites and cheaper then HID. What is better then that? Nothing.
If you get 7000K HID granted the light output is 2800 lumens with light that blue not only will you risk getting pulled over, but the light output in rain granted it rarely rains will suck.
