I want to get LED angel eyes for my LCI 535i with xenons. Which kit is the best overall? I don't want it to be too bright so that the rings are no longer visible, but not too dim either. Thanks!

None of the LED angel eyes are good. In fact, none of them are bright for the LCI models. I suggest the HID angel eyes.

+1 I've seen many LCI's with HID AEs by now and I must admit: they look great night OR day

Is it so bright that you can't see the rings of the angel eyes clearly? Do you have any pics?

U can see it clearly day or night. It's hard to capture pictures on camera.
