    Ok so light output low beams is amazing. Hi beans suck. But same went for the last set of Osram 55w bulbs I had before. I think Osram just makes shitting high beams. But the low beams are great.

    Dude. They are dope trucks. Especially the 05 and 06 because 5 speed auto and vvti for more power. Or the 00-04 can more easilly be supercharged, if you can find one.
    Really the only downside is a smaller aftermarket
