Has anyone tried the new GE NIGHTHAWK Headlights? Are they brighter and
better than Sylvania SilverStar Headlights?

The Silverstar is better and brighter

The Nighthawk puts more visible light on the road. The SilverStar
produces a whiter light thru the use of a light blue tint on the glass,
but doesn't put anymore useable light (probably less) on the road than
the 'base' Sylvania bulb - it's (SilverStar) just a marketing gimmick.

The real question is if the Nighthawk bulbs pull more wattage to be
brighter, like ricer bulbs off ebay, good at burning out wiring harnesses.

I bought a set of the GE NIGHTHAWK 9007 headlight bulbs on 4/11. They are
good, but still not as bright as I wanted. If I had to describe their
brightness, I would have to they are pretty close to Sylvania Cool Blues.

That being said, I exchanged the NIGHTHAWK bulbs for some Sylvania
SilverStar 9007 headlight bulbs on 4/21. MUCH BETTER! The light from the
SilverStars is perfectly white and I can see more at night. The light has
no blue tint even though the bulb's glass has a blue tint. I like my light
bright and white!
