4300 is White. 6K has a little blue, 8K has more blue and 10K is pretty much 100% blue.

I have 8Ks on my WS.6's lows and fogs. I also have 8Ks on the low beams on my Silverado and 4300s for my high beams on my Silverado.

I bought a kit last week that is supposed to be 5000K and its white, I had 6000k and they were a little blue, too blue for me. The kits and the quality of them range by so much and sometimes on one car can look different than another car. If I could do it over I'd probably go for the 4300K but thats only because the "5000K" dosen't look like the factory installed HID color. I'm really just trying to avoid hassle from the cops.

first of all it's "want" opposed to "wont."

then there are 5000k hids.
i just got my 6000k's yesterday and they are really white with a cool blue tint, but just barely.

here is them on my low beams compared to the stock lights on my hi beams!
what a difference.
