best hid temperature input and pict please

[simonac]

hi guys i am about to buy hid head light and fog to match of course...and i am debating the temperature to chose?? from 3000 k to 8000k....hummm
i live in canada and cops here dont like to see the blue in your head lamps so for sure out goes the 10000k and i dont realy like the ricer look ....i prefer the hight end look.$$$....if you have pict or comment about the hid it would be greatly apreciated... thanks guys

4300K is OEM white, and provides the most light output (usable lumens). 5000 or 6000K is as high as I would go, providing a nice blue tint, but still lots of usable light.
I have the Saleen HIDs, (Valeo Sylvania makes em as they do for everyone) and I like them. If/when the capsules burn out, I will be replacing them with 6000K Phillips capsules.

I had 4300K in my HID's and didn't care for it. I went to the 6000K and got what I wanted.
I suggest 6000K. It's NOT too blue. The 7200K is! (I tried those too.)

a buddy of mine has the 8000k's and they're pretty blue, I just ordered a pair myself, I'll let you know how I like em.

thanks guys... i am debating between 6000k and 8000k mainly? i have been told to put a piece of white paper in front of the beam and if it blueish it not legal here and cop will fine you or have u inspected....and for sure i am more in too the usable light than the pimp factor.. (no arm meant to anone..) i want to see at knight....thanks guys..
