Default Recommendations on replacement bulbs for foglights

I want to replace my OEM foglight bulbs with something a bit brighter and more crisp, to match my Xenons. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

Go with xenon. They are easy to install 60-80 bucks. Look good, and worth it.

4300k HID's should be about right with your stock xenons. H11 is your bulb size

Yea i don't think they make silverstars for our bulb size =/.. someone correct me if im wrong but im pretty sure they don't.. i actually just got a pair of "ziza platinum white" fogs for 25 off of ecstuning and i like them.. id say theyre about a 5000k HId color just cuz they have a little bit of a blue tint to them but yea

Default HID's in the fogs

Does having the HID's that close to the ground run any risk of blown bulbs due to more pounding from moisture, puddles etc.?

Not a chance. I mean, if you run over a deer they may get damaged but not from a pothole.

I have had mine for about 3 months now and no problems. They are great, and will out last your filament bulbs, and from eb-scray, are about the same price any way.
JUST DO IT!!
