Yes, that's normal. I guess they figure that's just too much light and you'll be blinding everyone.

Yes that is what happens. I think it is due to the fact you can only have 4 lights on at one time says the gov. But don't know if this is just a state thing or a fed thing.

6k is too blue, looks ricey. I got 4500k hoping it would match my owm low's, but its still a little blueish, so I bought 4500k replacement bulbs for my low's. Bought everything from ddmtuning.com. lifetime warranty and plug and play and best price. Cant go wrong

8000k is when it gets really blue/purple. 6000k is white with a bit of blue tint. 5000k is pure white. 4300k is when it's white with a little yellow.

ddmtuning probably underrates its bulbs.
