Like the title states my question is about 5k or 6.5k h.i.d.'s i am looking for pure white like the brightest white that you can get without it looking blue. Would i get this look witht he 5k's or the 6.5k's or would yall recommend another k? thanks.

 

6500k will look bluish. 5000k will look just a tad whiter than stock.

get Phillips Ultinon 6000k - it's just perfect. it'll look a bit blue when used alone, but if used with fogs, it'll look white with a hint of blue on the road. get PIAA Super Plasma GT-X 5000k for fogs - perfect.

 

5K Philips is the highest you want to go with color and performance.
top is Philips 5K

 

That duo-projector retro is awesome! what kinda lenses did you use? I'm interested in doing this myself.

Here are my 6k D2R's(no name brand from HIDKing.com)

 

If you want white go with the 5k.
I have the 6k Ultinons, they have a purpleish hue to them and above that they start to go blue.

 

You mean projectors? TSX/E55

 

ozracer1 how long have your bulbs lasted? That's a good price but I'm worried its more worth it to get a name brand hid

 

I've had mine since Dec. 2004. They are still good.

 

mummm... my 06 comes w/ 5000K already.... (Philips 85122+ D2S)... but compare to my bimmer, (Philips 85122 D2S 4100K)... they r the same... when comparing to my sis's TSX (Philips 85122+ D2S 5000K), it turns out whiter than my G35... I swap bulbs around w/ my sis's TSX, same result, and swap them w/ my bimmer, my bimmer is way much whiter than G35...
So, as a conclusion, for some reason, the G35 projector and reflector (tried both) is the cause of the light to be yellowlish...
If I were u, i'll take the 6000K prolumen (I forgot the exactly name), as you might know, yellow light + blue=white ideally... (hint: those blue bulbs) and will not take the Philips 6000K (85122 WX) as these are blue w/ warm purple colour... I personally have the Prolumen 6000K (supposingly gives off cool blue colour) and they turns out perfectly fine as cool blue light turns out to be white w/ very little blue tint....
Hope this help... cause i learn it in the hard way by buying all those bulbs...

 

Shoud've gone with a projector mod and 85122+ and you are all set.

 

Projector mod??? Mine were the projectors already... 06'.... What i mean is the projectors somehow turn the light in yellowish... as in using the 5000K in my Bimmer, stock projectors, gives off white in colour, whereas the G35's 06' stock projector gives off light w/ yellowish in colour with the same set of bulbs...
