Default Brightest, Whitest H1 Bulbs?

I am curious what you guys recommend that will actually LAST.



I have some cheap Xenons in there now that were about $30 a pair. Theyre nice and white but not BRIGHT at all. I mean on the road you can barely see any light at all!

For H1's I perfer OEM or Philips Vision Plus bulbs. The Vision plus bulbs shine brighter then any other bulbs I've seen or used but they are not the whitest. I had used them on my low beams for close to two years and finally had one burn out this past week.

Blue and Purple are not going to be very bright.

I just ordered a set of APC H1's, and H4's for my jdm headlights. I usually hate APC, but these are supposed to make your low beam as bright as a standard high beam, ant they're only 11 bucks a pair, so i'll let you know how they are.

I have PIAA hyperwhite H1s. The bulb is blue but it gives off a bright, pure white. I can definitely notice a difference at night as far as visibility. They came with a 6 month warranty through the company I bought them through. I was told that they do not last long in Preludes, so the 6 month was good enough for me. They cost about $75.

PIAAs are too expensive if you ask me. I dont know, I am still thinking about getting them because my Xenons are SOOOOOO lousy. Theyre nice and white but theyre not BRIGHT like regular stock headlights are.

I am waiting for Sylvania to come out with Silverstars in H1s.

Well, i'm sold! I generally cant stand products from APC, but the bulbs I just threw in my JDMs today are VERY bright!! I don't know about how long they're going to last, though. oh, and they turned out to be 25 bucks a set rather than 8 - 11.
