Blue bulbs reduce your usable light output and HIDs glare in the eyes of oncoming drivers unless OEM projectors or reflectors designed for use with HIDs are used.

i have 6000k in stock housings (just to give you an idea of the glare check my sig)

To get a good idea of the glare, try driving at them on the road at night.

Read the postings above. Any tint or layer to the bulb to replicate a color will reduce the lighting output.

Lighting outputwise, goes from halogen to HIR and than to HID.

After a while the tint burns too.

The higher the rating in Kelvin degrees, the less light output the HID bulbs are producing. Anything between 4000K and 6000K is producing the greatest light output, therefore the largest amount of glare. You can stand in front of your car and look at them all you like, but to really get a good idea of the amount of glare your headlights are producing for ONCOMING TRAFFIC, you would have to BE the oncoming traffic. In other words, drive another car toward yours on the road while someone else is driving toward you in your car. This will give you an accurate idea of what other drivers will experience when driving toward you on a public road.
