the maxima forum is a few blocks down.

but to answer your question...5000k is usually a Kelvin rating for HIDs though, which stands for High Intensity Discharge.

I don't know if your car has HIDs but here is a color chart for reference:http://img126.imageshack.us/im...0.jpg

Anything over 5000k is usually overkill and potentially blinding to oncoming traffic.
