I have a pair of FF50 driving lamps on my Subaru (wired to come on with the high beams) that currently have 65W Osram Rallye H7/H9 bulbs in them. The bulbs have less than 5 hours of use on them (over 3 years), and I want to transfer them to my low beam headlights, replacing the old Rallye bulbs currently in my low beams.

What to put in the FF50s? At Amazon, a pair of Philips X-Treme Vision H7 bulbs are $23, and a pair of Philips Racing-Vision H7 bulbs are $25. I don't think the shorter lifespan of the Racing-Vision bulbs will be an issue for me in my application, and I am inclined to buy them. Am I making a mistake? Are the Racing Vision bulbs more likely to be counterfeits?
