ahh dont get those! they dont have a reputable name at all.. Trust me.. back in the day i riced out my sister's Accord like crazy! hence the name Accordguyintake

If you just want some aftermarket bulbs i recommend PIAA if you are willing to spend that much. Polarg is also a good higher-end bulb.

Looking to spend less? Nokya and Luminics Luminics: Home to Luminics Bulbs

will do the job!

BTW, i highly doubt they are 8500k... they aren't TRUE HID bulbs, it's pretty much a normal bulb with some blue tint on them. And it's pretty hard to get THAT MUCH blue out. And you do know that more K rating isn't brighter right? 4300k which is like pure white is the brightest you can get. Going over that gives more color with the penalty of less brightness.. Just a heads up for ya!

Oh and adding one more thing, what other reliable plug and play HID companies would you guys recommend? I don't want any Ebay ones.

lets just be frank -- anything over 4300k in HIDs and you're dealing with near ricer colors. 6000k is your safest bet.

my friend told me silverstars work well for a while but they burn out after a few months, my other friend had them but on those old sealed beam type lights are sure enough, one side did go out after a a few months

I had Silverstars on my WRX. I got about 3-4 years out of em. I thought that was reasonable.
