Default Stick with the silverstars, I have experience with both and...

the silverstar is a quality bulb that is noticably brighter and whiter than the stock osram/phillips bulbs. A few years ago I bought those eurolite bulbs off ebay for my wife's 3 series...the one burnt out in a week, and the second after a month. Tossed em and bought silverstars.
