I just ordered some "white" halogens and they are for my high beams. My stock ones are 12v 65w the ones I recieved are 12v 120w. Will installing these burn out my wires? ANy additional info will also be appreciated.
120 watts... that's some serious wattage but I'm not sure if your wires will burn since these bulbs are for your high beams and they run at reduced power as your DRL.

That's wat I though too. I even put them on for like a min and everything was fine, but idk I'd rather not take the chance imma just try to get them replaced

I'm curious, how do these bulbs look in DRL mode? Do they still have the yellowish look or are they perhaps somewhat brighter in appearance? If so take some pics.

They are much less yellow than stock, still not white though, I'd say beige?
say bye to your harness if you run them, get some nokya ones.
Well I got another pair of these for my low beams. The power on those are 12v 55w (or 60w I forgot) I should be fine with those right? And why does everyone like nokya much? What's so great about em?
The 9005 (high beam/drl) bulbs, you should be okay with the bulbs that you put in. Personally I think they are a waste unless you use your high beams fairly often. Other then that the bulbs as you say have changed the appearance of your DRL's very slightly. As for the low beams, the bulbs are prolly rated at 65 watts so you'll be safe. If the wattage is higher then that, I highly suggest you get a harness for each socket which are made for higher wattage bulbs to prevent the socket and/or wires from melting. Or you can just upgrade to HID
