4300 kelvin.

Just to let you know the "k" stands for Kelvin and not an indicator for a thousand.

I recommend not going above 6000k bulbs. Once you go over, the visibility drops. 6000k is a pure white light with a hint of blue; visibility is great IMO. But once you go to 8000k, it's just a mainly bluish light that is not the best in terms of visibility.

8000k looks sick and everyone and there grandma notices your car on the road you may get tired of low visibility and no visibility in rain. the fogs at 6000k will help your peripheral but forward vision will be at a loss and you may opt to spend another 100(?) to swap them out for 6000k. might as well go with all 6000k it will match, be functional, and look niiiiice.
