6000K will be a little more blue, but 5000k will be brighter with more light output. The closer you can get to 4300K the brighter the lights will be.

I did a quick search; here is a link with color charts for an approximation. My favorite is the 5000k because while I don't want them yellow like halogens, I don't want them blue, either...

Are you doing a retrofit or just swapping out the bulbs?

Make sure you give the 'Got *HID* Problems? Check in here..' thread a good once over in the TECH sub-forum, save yourself some hassle.
