Mine are the PIAA 4000K. I would be a little scared to go any brighter. the brighter you go the more current has to move through the wires, hence more heat build up on the wires. Keep in mind. To go brighter i would up the AWG of the wire to handle the extra current. That would be my only concern. Or the wires may catch on fire or the jacket may melt off and cause a short. I find mine as they are pretty bright. I don't know for sure but 6000K may be alright but you might be pushing it. Just a thought.
interesting.. thanks for the input. yeah.. usually when you don't have the proper voltage, you'll see one dimmer light than the other. I'm assuming that the fuse will blow, if the car can't handle the juice. I want to go as bright as possible, but not to the point I'll get haress by the police or blind others.
