Default headlight questions

So i was looking at purchasing some new headlight bulbs. and came across Putco Pure Halogen Headlight Bulbs and was wondering if anyone has used them and what your thoughts are about the product?

I'm guessing you missed the 109 reviews at the bottom of the page from the people that used them?

? That makes no sense.
Is there anything in those 109 reviews that failed to answer your questions?

Be specific and maybe someone can address them.

^ That said, subjective reviews of headlight bulbs are generally useless. Problem being that your brain and eyes aren't actually good assessors of light intensity - the objective measurement of light source performance.

This, however, I can tell you: Any company that promotes a whole bunch of ridiculous non road-legal colours for headlight bulbs can and should be INSTANTLY ignored. If you want the best and "brightest" bulbs to light up the road in front of you, get yourself some Philips X-TREME POWER +80%. http://store.candlepower.com/phxtpobuhe.html Lower price, better bulb, better quality, better road illumination.
