whatever you do, dont get 55w with 5000k, it really bleaches out color and output.

i have ddm 55watt 6000k and they have the best output that i have seen around town with reflector housings.
That's because it's 55w, your running more lumens than most other people.
but keep in mind i only have stock housings and not projectors. what would be the best option for me?
Either get TYC projectors or retrofit is the BEST option.
i have a quick question about HIDs. im looking for the most light output and i was told if i got the 35watt i should get 6k, but if i got the 55watt i should get the 5k. suggestions?
35w 4300k will have the most lumens (light output of any kit). The higher the Kelvin the LESS lumens you'll have. You need to remember Kelvin and Lumens is different. Kelvin = color, Lumens = light output.
sorry to thread jack but i ordered 55w 8k you guys think itll be better cuz its a higher k and less light output or you think ill still be blinding ppl
^^Again... Kelvin = Color, Lumens = Light output. 55w puts out a lot more light than 35w so therefore more glare.
