this has been in question for a while and i finally decided to go ahead and test it.
I purchased the top of the line Sylvania Lights and the top of the line PIAA lights they are both 4000K Halogen lights. I let you guys be the judge on what to use for your vehicles.
Personally i liked Sylvania lights better, they were a bit brighter and the light reflection seemed to be a bit whiter than PIAA not to mention a lot cheaper.



Now i use sylvania in my rx until im able to get HID

 

piaa all the way a little more expensive but i love the look. besides u can always say u wasted more on your lights than the other guy

 

For the price, you can't really beat Sylvania's. I use them as well.

 

Glad to see someone did the test! Just so you know GE is comming out with a new one also, they were promoting it at the Auto Show this year. I think they are called Eagle Eyes or something. The rep said they are going to be the best on the market and are comming out on shelves in April.

 

i think the sylvanias are better. the light they cast seems to be a bit clearer and less cloudy then the piaas

 

Ah crap can someone please give me the part # for the sylvanias? Thanks.

Are you talking about the sylvania silverstars or a model higher than that?

 

bump

 

I would like to know as well.

 

sylvania silverstars all the way!

i had the piaa bulbs and really didn't like them. silverstars lit up the road better.

 

i've had sylvania silverstars and i now have piaa spark blues. the sylvania seemed to be more white and a little clearer, but the piaa's are definately brighter and project a little further. just my two cents

 

I have the silverstars in crystal cut housings and it was a great improvement over stock. I want brighter though.

EDIT: This is on a FC by the way. If anyone wants some pix ask.

 

Can anyone with Sylvanias get a picture of the light from the projectors? Thanks.

 

Using silverstars in the FD, now to get matching ones for the fogs and parking lights.
