The denali has such great headlight options. That combo works so great on your truck! What hids are you running?
While not terrible from factory with d1r hids the escalade headlights are so limited sadly.

Anyone who doesn't have the paint job on the top of their list is fired.
That's a fair point.
Paint first, wheels/tires/drop second, lights third

Oh pete! Blue lights are terrible if you want to see! Get something in the 4000 to 5000k range. 3000k would be noticably yellow btw
Im also blind. I always try to improve lighting in my vehicles.
I am running just osram cbi d1rs in my stock escalade lenses with stock 35w ballasts.

ah yeah the problem with the hoes and silvys is that the lense is so small. That extra little bit on the yuks helps.

Yep 3000k is pure golden yellow. 4300 is stock halogen. 5000k is white, 6000k little blueish.
For reference- I have 3000k lows and fogs now. Turn signals are a 5000k

Interesting. I dont see 3000k lows ever. Looks good on your truck.
Mostly kids running 8000k around here in halogen reflector setups bliding everyone and cant see a thing.

This is true. 6500k is about the max I'd use for a headlight (still amongst the white spectrum, btw). Anything beyond that is too blue to be effective as a driving light.
@05Single Dave, I love that setup! LEDs or HIDs? Thinking about trying out the color-changing headlight bulbs in my Ram so I can switch to 3000k for those foggy mornings. Would be pretty cool to switch colors on the fly.
