from the site:

The 7000k kit is the most popular selling kit and is the most common color in HID systems today. Cars that use systems similar to the 7000k kit are the Acura TL/CL, BMW (at 15-20 degree angle), Audi (at 15-20 degree angle), Honda S2000 (at 15-20 degree angle), Mercedes-Benz S-Class, and more. It is a very popular HID kit and it's the latest trend in HID technology. The 7000 kit is also very bright, rated at 2800 lumens, which is the same as many stock HID systems. It's the perfect blend of color and brightness!

doesnt look like he knows what hes talking about.

IMO, that guy is full of $hit.

The higher you go, the less the light output is. Forexample, our stock HIDs are the brightest when compared with the 5000K+. I think 6000K is a perfect blend of light output and color.

Why waste the $65 when you can use that to buy the real thing. I rather pay more for quality stuff than pay less for cheap stuff.

just an FYI, the stock 4300K HIDs put out 3400 lumens vs the 2800 of those 7000K.. in other words, your stock will be brighter..

6000K Phillips are your best bet.. if the color really makes that big of a difference to you..

How much did you guys get your 6000k's for? And which one did you get the D2S or D2R? Which is better?

What brand are the bulbs? I don't think they are Philips or Osram since it's $65, they are probably some cheap Korean or Taiwan stuff that won't last very long.
