Default Expensive lights

Anybody running some good lights like PIAA, Lightforce, KC's or any other brand of super lights. I have some cheap knockoff KC's i bought off ebay and im looking for a upgrade. If you have pics that would be great. My price range is around 200 bucks and i dont wheel too hard where im gonna hit a tree so ill be taking good care of them. TIA

got some like yours... are yours the 8"? I love how bright they are... so much that i only use them when no one is around also. I spend around 300 + shipping on mine when I ordered them about 4 years ago.

I dont think i can squeeze a 3rd one in there and im looking for really bright lights my current headlights suck and are going to get replaced soon and now im a little addicted to light. im putting some 2x6's in the stock location for fogs and i use the spot lights for high beam when no-ones coming.im looking for a mixed beam that the lightforce offers. They have a cool combo lense that is part driving/spot light. Im leaning in their direction. Just looking for other opinions.

I have the parts for an hid kit that i put in the lights im running now and it was a massive halo. I accidentally bought the h1 bulbs not the h3's. Later i asked a guy on ebay from the US and asked if h3's would solve my problem and he said no so i dont feel like wasting more money on an iffy subject. Have you done the hella hid conversion. If you did please let me know ill consider doing that.
