juppalgae is on a distinguished road
pls comment on this (HID legal limit in each state)

Well closest to sunlight is 4300k which is white and all stock vehicles use.
6000k are for off road use only, not legal in any state. accept for japan.

4300k= 3200 lumens- 3400 lumens
6000k= 2400 lumens

The higher the kelvin the more blue/purple which outputs less lumens.
If you check carefully in your road traffic laws, there is a minimum of lumens and maximum lumens output.
Also the colour you should be outputting.

So if you have BLUE 30k bulbs,
-the output is not white,
-lumen is lower then minimum
-Bulbs are colour coated( big no no)
= Ticket is valid

There is a reason why stock vechicles use ONLY 4300k.
Good luck
