I chose the TruckLites, because they give more even light spread than the other options.
They also give straighter horizontal cutoff vs others, which allows aiming them a bit higher without blinding on-coming traffic.
The light spread is wide enough to shed light on the road or trail sides.

Another thing you may want to consider --
Some LED headlights flicker a bit, some don't.
My TruckLites had a barely noticeable flicker, sometimes, and only if in front of a wall.
It didn't bother me, but then I read that the flicker may harm the LEDs' electronics.
I don't know if that's true or not, so I added the anti-flicker just to be on the safe side.

I love my truckloads, very bright. I worry sometimes that I'm blinding on coming traffic but hardly ever get flashed at. I need to check my adjustment as I'm due for VA state inspection and this is probably the only thing that I might get hit for. Also I often am careful when driving behind traffic as I can always see people adjusting there mirrors when I'm behind them.

So I just went out and adjusted the height of low beams so that 5 feet from bumper lights low beam top height adjusted to 40.5". I really don't know what the "legal" height they are to be adjusted to but it is very simple up/down adjustment with a torx tip T-15. Adjustment screw for drivers side is located 2:00 o-clock position and passenger side adjustment screw is located at 10:00 position. I've only been driving with these lights for almost a year (too high I think) but I didn't have anyone get out and complain. I love them and to me was one of the best investments as the stock lights really suck. I think I got mine last December with pigtails for $400.00.
