Default HIDs HELP!

sorry if someone already posted something similar to this. i was searching for it but i couldnt find it ):

i was wondering which HIDs are the brightest? i have some 6500K from xenon depot but i was wondering if there was anything brighter than that. they're currently on my ES300 1st generation (doesnt seem THAT bright as i wanted)

any suggestions? im looking for something of more on the white/blueish side. pretty much anything that is SUPER bright

let me know what you guys think or have to say thanks!

Generally the factory 4300k are the brightest, but arent very pretty. The next best thing would be the Philips 85122cm color match (5000k) (got me a pair ) I just dont use them cause they clashed with the LED's on my side markers

There are 55watt kits though that are suppose to be much brighter than the factory 35watt kits.

If you want white with a very slight blue tint, your best bet would be 5000k color temp. Its bright without looking aftermarket.
