Default Piaa extreme white plus ?

I currently have sliverstars in the car now and I finnally have enough money to buy the piaa but I am curious on how blue the extreme white plus are. I really don't want to look like a ricer with them. Like my sliverstars now during the day look a bit purple blue which I hate. But at night they look good and light up the road great. So I am curious on how blue these piaas are? Will I get better night vision at night with the piaa's vs the sliverstars?

i don't know about the light output but i have seen the piaa extreme, it's very bright at night. and the light output is very white imho, i didn't really get the feeling it's ricer blue at all

They're not blue/purple at all. You can even tell that they won't be if you put the Silverstar bulb side by side with the PIAA Xtreme white bulb....the PIAA bulb does have a slightly blueish tint to it, but it's not even as close to dark as the Silverstar bulb.

I'm running PIAA Xtreme White on both my low beams and fogs. The light output is pure white at night. Those bulbs are rated at 4000-4100K, so it's safe to say that they don't appear "blue" like in the 8000K bulbs.
