The best bulbs IMO are OEM sylvannia's. They light up the road well and last forever (well almost )

You will not lose your high beams. Silverstars are about $40 a set. The ones on GBC have poor lighting output and usually die after a couple of weeks. If you *have* to get one of the GBC ones, the Nokya ones have better quality than the others.
