Default Headlight bulbs

Hey. I just got new prohector headlights installed in my 2002 Accord. The high beams are bright as hell but without the mirrors reflecting the bulbs light, the low beams are very dim. I'm pretty sure I need new Low beam bulbs. Could anyone reccommend a good pair of white low beam bulbs?

Yeah, but the high beams are very bright. The it seems there are two parts to the low beams. Two beams focus to right in front of the car, and two focus off to the sides. The ones that focus to the front came with the headlights and are very bright, but the ones off to the sides are very dim and it is hard to see when making turns. It is these lights that are off to the side that have my stock bulbs still in it. I do think that i simply need brighter bulbs. If you still think I'm wrong please exaplain why, If not could someone reccommend some better bulbs

you could probably try sylvania silver stars, ray brigs, piaa a higher quality bulb. however, projectors w/o an hid system tend to have terrible light output. that's just my opinion
