stock is 4300k
and K is more for color than anything
the higher the K the more blue it will be then, then it will be purplish
the higher the K the less brighter it is becasue there will be less useable light

K stands for Kelvin.. its a measure of tempature... Stock HIDS is 4300K the maximum light output.. The higher the Kelvin rating the less light output but more color.. 12k is like purple and 4K is white do you see what i mean 8k has a blue hue to it
