Default CCFL vs LED Halos?

So I know that the CCFL's are "brighter"... but do they truly last longer and all that fun stuff? I've noticed with LED's I've seen some "incomplete halos" where a few spots go out.

But as far as my wallet is concerned

CCFL's are about 50 bucks more than the LED's.

What do you guys suggest. Here are the options, and I'm not going for HID's or anything.. too expensive for lights I dont care about.

CCFL. Brighter/HID capability, and quite frankly the three little led's on the side of the other set looks a little feminine.

Just letting you know that the one's on the bottom link do not have the best light output. Look into the ones in this thread.
