i remember living upstate and driving on those "black hole abyss light sucker" roads in the mist and rain.
i don't know about those Silverstars. maybe they don't put out the light that the Philips and Osrams do..... they don't even SAY what they do put out ie; +30%, +100% etc........that's probably why they lost a 30 million dollar class action law suit with their other bulbs.......you have the HIR's for the high beam, right?
the color temperature for the philips can be found here: scroll down, it's 3400K

or the Osram Nightbreaker Unlimited:

i'm pretty sure that "segment" your referring to is buried in the Spyder thread.....who the hell knows where tho.....
Yes to the Phillips 9011 HIR1 in the high side. They are sweet, turn them on and almost like turning the sun on, well sort of, almost. I can see with them, but I don't remember turning them on in the rain in the 'black whole'.
