Stick with the 4300! It's the most lumens (brightest light output) for the $$. If you want blue light & don't care about getting the brightest light output, or getting pulled over by Johnny Law for blue headlights, then wait for him to get back to you. What Kelvin were you hoping for?

^^Keep the 4300k. I opted for the 8000k and I should've got the lesser K.

True. Wire everything up and run them to see if you like them.
All the serious HID retrofit guys run nothing but 4300k. Granted I'm not retrofitted, I still should've ran the 4300k instead of the 8000k. The higher k looks nice, but it cuts down on output.

i removed my Apillar tape only.. i think the car looks retarded with the window trim tape removed but just the Apillar taken off looks a lot better than stock.

The car looks good! You're well on youre way to another money pit!

CIONIDE If you are reading this .....respond!!!!
I think "please" respond is the word you're looking for.

Yes, 235/40-18 tires will work with the Hotchkis drop, as long as the wheel width and offset are correct.

If you're still looking at the Raze R-74 wheels, they'll work fine in 18x7.5 +42 with those size tires and the Hotchkis springs. If you're looking at other wheels, then I'll need to know which ones to see if they come in a size & offset that is compatible with the tire/spring combo you want to run.
