8000K is not as good as 6000K. The higher the #, the less usable light is actually on the road. With 8000K's, you get a lot of reflection from the road and other cars whereas with the 6000K's, you see EVERYTHING!!!! Iknow a guy who sells a HID hibeam, but halogen low beam for $290 and a HID hi AND low kit for about...$490-ish(CANADIAN)

siccmonkey,
What do you mean "reflections"? It's not as bright as 6000k?

before i aimed my headlights down, i would light up street signs and reflective tape on trucks etc, from no joke at least 1/4 mile, i could be on the access road, and still be lighting up signs, vehicles on the highway, but without retrofitting you will never really acheive a nice smooth cutoff, mine are some cheap ebay HID's the brand is GB-A
