as far as visability goes cheap and good do not go together.. all the plasma super white crap (that is cheap) sucks to illumintae the road.... the ONLY "white" bulbs that get my approval are silverstars.. i like those and hella yellow ion... both will run you about 50 for the pair.. those and REAL hid nice...

Ya, you're not gonna find good bulbs for anything less than $30 a pair. CoolBlue's are pretty damn good. They're about the cheapest well made bulb you're gonna find that's brighter than stock. PIAA's and HID's are nice too, but aren't DOT approved... (unless you do an HID conversion from another vehicle)

Ive got streetglow super whites, and believe it or not, they work really damn well compared to many of the other super whites that Ive seen. But this could be my thoughts just because I was so used to the absolute SHIT light that came from my AE's (and no I dont use my aux lights anymore...theyre off now)

I have some no name brand from ebay and they are fine, bright enough and have a nice white look to them. Beats the stock lights.

i used to have the hyperwhite crap but went to cool blues from sylvania. not bad, a white light, but on rain my visibility sucks ass. it does that with stock bulbs too.
