Default Are led 1157 bulbs worth considering for brake lights?

To my understanding, the stock lamp/lighting frame of the Integra aren't good at dispersing lighting from LED's, instead, halogens are to be used.

These 1157 bulbs seemed to have gotten the best reviews from users.

The only non-led (halogen?), that seems to be worth getting are these Sylvanias.

Thanks to "Team-integra" website for displaying bulb specifications.

Any other "higher quality" recommendations would be appreciated as well.

Edit: I went ahead and got the Sylvania's 1157 (halogen?).

I just found out my brake lights are 1156 (1 conductor on the bottom), while tails are 1157 (2 conductors at the bottom.

Edit: It seems the 1156 is for the turn signal light. So I guess the braking and tail lights use the same 1157 bulbs... smh.
