I vote 6000k-- nice look to them without losing much output. 4300k gives you the best output though but will be more yellow. It's all up to personal preference.

+1 6000k is the ideal choice.

4300k are in no way yellowish. They are white as anything with a little blue.

No, they're not yellow but aren't going to have tons of color. You'll definately still be able to tell that they are HIDs though, and you'll see thebest with them. 5000k is going to get more blue with a littleless output. 6000k, bluer. less output 8000 blue to purple.. much less output and so on...
