Default Philips X-treme Power bulbs

I know that these are good, but was wondering if there is anything better?

Has anyone else noticed that these 'extreme' bulbs don't seem to last very long. A year or so ago I change all four of my cars headlights to these. I think I have one left.

Nope don't use them, but if it helps I am still on a two and a half year old pair of Osrams.

Have the Extremes in my SV and the Nightbreakers in my Z750

Both are as good as each other and possibly the best non-illegal options
