Are the lenses tinted yellow, or is that the color of your bulbs?

The way it was explained to me is:

Cant have ONLY yellow on. I have 5k HID low beams, and 3k highs. Never had a problem with them.

You can't have only yellow bulbs lighting the road.

I have stock HIDs (white) and the 5k highbeams, and 3k fog lights...

The way i see it, the more light you have on the road, as long as it's not over powering, the better off you will be and with 4-5K being "pure" white you'll be able to see more. I live on roads loaded with deer and many other decently sized animals... I prefer seeing what's ahead of me. Lol
