Driving lights or Daylighters??

Hey guys I wanna add some lighting to my 99 F-150 for night drives and offroading.

I'm not sure what to buy. Are the Hella 500 lights very bright? They have a 55 watt bulb. I'm not sure if they will cut it.

What can you guys suggest for lights??

Where is a good place online to purchase??

Thanks in advance.

What kind of beam pattern are you looking for. With the offroad lights there are fog lights, wide spread out beam, and driving lights which are a more precise pattern and puts more light in front of you. I personally have 2 kc daylighters which are long rang driving lights and these things are bright as hell. They are pretty much long range spot lights. Hope this helps. Keep me posted on what beam pattern you are looking for and i can give more info.
