The best ones are the ones that are correctly aimed, not necessarily the brightest ones.

People don’t get it and I’ve grown tired of explaining it. The 579 has the worst headlights. Mine were so dim, when cars passed me I couldn’t even see my light field in theirs. Can’t read street signs, can’t see on black pavement, it’s a real pain. Any time you bring it up they assume you’re wanting to blind every other motorist on the road.
Finally for ‘23 they are sufficient. I’m not sure if they use new bulbs, if the housing is different, or both but the ‘22 and older 579 headlights are terrible.D.Tibbitt, Rideandrepair, Vampire and 3 others Thank this. -
I felt the headlights in my 2017 579 were fine and I run a lot of 2 lane roads. Yes the ones on my 2022 are better with the redesign of the hood and lights.
Having brighter headlights won’t help you see any better if oncoming traffic has bright lights, especially if you’re staring right into their lights. The best thing to do is watch the fog line until they go by you.God prefers Diesels, Rideandrepair, Brettj3876 and 1 other person Thank this. -
I know what you mean, people coming at me with high beams on don’t phase me, just annoy me. My gripe was the very low output of the previous 579 lights. My ambers did I better job at illuminating road signage. I could blink my parking lights and watch the signs disappear.Rideandrepair, Siinman and Long FLD Thank this. -
