Match them to the halos, if you get blue halos you will want like 10K, if white then get 5K

get no higher than 6k for hids because any higher is useless for seeing where your going.

I run 5K in both, but the projectors make the blue come out a little more

I'm going to get 5k heads and fogs, with white and red halos (change colors by a switch) and also have projectors in the heads and put eyelids on the heads
