New HID's?
So my ballasts and Bulbs went bad a few months ago and im finally getting around to replacing them. I dont know which ballasts kit to get for it. I dont know anything about them but want good ones that wont **** the bed in 2 years. I plan on putting 8K bulbs in them so im assuming i should go with the 55W?
Thanks for the help guys!

1. 8k bulbs are a waste. Anything over 5k will have worse light output at night. Plus 8k looks dumb
2. www.theretrofitsource.com is my recommendation. great guys, great products. ddm is what a lot of other people will swear by

Because when you add rain and night into the mix good luck having any visibility when driving. I get more compliments on my 4.3 K Lights then when i had the 8K plus I see everything in front of me.
anything above 5k, visibility drops down. 20k you might as well just use a single AA flashlight for visibility as it'll be better. Even 6k has noticeably less light output than 5k, 8k is going to be terrible either way.
There's a reason that BMW/Mercedes/Lexus/etc use 4100k-4300k bulbs with their HID setups, and it's not for looks.
