Quick review... Osram CBBs

I know this is an old post but I just wanted to give a review of the Osram CBB D1S bulbs..... These seem to produce more light than the OEM Osrams . My concern was that they were going to be too blue tinted in that they were rated at 7000K. When you first turn them on, they appear to have a blue tint. But once they are on for a minute or so they warm up to a more pure white . The color is pretty close to the OEM led Msport foglights. I was reading that after about 40 - 50 hours of burn in they may turn slightly bluer . We shall see . I have around 10 hours of run time as of now. Qsram and Phillips seem to offer a couple of bulbs that may throw out a little more light but are slightly warmer ~5000K temperature. My goal was to match the LED foglights as close as possible.
