4300k is perfect not a slight hint of yellow or blue at all. Like mikey stated before that's the common type most cars are equipped with from the factory. You won't attract cops as much as 6000k etc, just don't aim your lights up.

4300k doesnt have any yellow in it at all. its just white. 6000k is pretty damn blue. upclose its white, but take 50 steps back n all you see is blue.

The brightest lumens is OEM 4300K but if you like the color go with 5000K. The difference in lumens is very small, and you'll still see everything on the road. Personally I'd suggest nothing higher than 5000K. Pure white with a blue hint.

There shouldn't be any misunderstandings either on the flicker or crazy flash of 12000K+ in OEM HID's. It's all in the shield and not the lights which are just 4300K. The ultimate conversion WITH flicker is a retro-fit along with a shield mod. Ultimate in HID bling with useful light.
