I rode for a little more than an hour after dark. They are a big improvement over the original lights but I want more! They do light up the sides of the road much better and you can see farther down the road but not enough to go more than 50 MPH at night. They should be much more noticeable in the daytime as well.
I drive a Nissan Frontier pickup and the headlights on it are EXCELLENT after I put in these bulbs: http://www.osram-americas.com/en-us/products/automotive/Pages/silverstar-ultra.aspx. They were good before and these made it almost as good as HID lights.
Of course, a lot of the efficiency of headlights is due to the design of the reflector. A really good bulb may only make a modest improvement in a poorly designed reflector and may not be as good as a mediocre bulb in a well designed one.
I think I'll see how much of an improvement the Silver Star Ultras make on the fog lights in a week or so. If I do and they're a good improvement, I may just try them for the headlights to see which are best.
