I wouldn't say "Xtreme", November 10, 2009
This review is from: PIAA 15211 H11 Style Xtreme White 55=110-Watt Bulb - Twin Pack (Misc.)
Just installed these lights in my 08 Impala. I definitily would not call them "Xtreme" white or very blue but there is a difference from the stock bulbs. These bulbs are whiter than my stock lights but not an "Xtreme" amount whiter. As far as the blue the only blue I see is a slight reflection in the back of the headlight casing from the blue glass and tip but you basically have to look almost directly into the beam to see it and it is not visible from a distance although I wasn't expecting them to be very blue being halogen. They do provide a crisper light while driving and I feel that they do provide better vision and are a little more aesthetically pleasing to the eye which is what you are paying for. If you are looking for the dramatic colors and blinding light you are going to have to go Xenon HID which will run you about $150-$250 installed from a car customs shop. Overall I think that they serve their purpose for the money.

Better lightoutput, September 20, 2009
This review is from: PIAA 15211 H11 Style Xtreme White 55=110-Watt Bulb - Twin Pack (Misc.)
These bulbs definately have noticeable difference in light output, especially over OEM bulbs. The light is brighter and has hint of blue.
It is definately NOT the deep blue that: 1) look stupid; 2) cause pain to others in oncoming traffic.
The ONLY real problem I have is that these bulbs last about 18-24 months. You need to be sure to handle these bulbs with "kid gloves" and protect the bulb from being touched by anything. But with a 2005 luxury SUV, I am on my 3rd set of these bulbs.
When I see the another SUV that is the same model as mine, I notice that their headlights aren't as bright and powerful, and are the yellow-white color.

Good bulbs, but not as expected, October 24, 2010
This review is from: PIAA 15211 H11 Style Xtreme White 55=110-Watt Bulb - Twin Pack (Misc.)
These bulbs are pretty good, but definitely not as expected. I was expecting these bulbs to be white, with a hint of blue. I wanted nicer looking headlights, without switching over to HID. These are brighter than my stock bulbs, but still have that nasty yellow look. They are whiter than stock bulbs, but still yellow. In terms of brightness, they do illuminate the road better at night, so I'm not completely unhappy. I just think that they are extremely overpriced for what you get now. I hope they last longer than expected. I've only been using them for 1 month, so we'll see.
