I have been running truck lites for over a year and about 22000 miles and huge improvement. I have a 2" lift and 34" tires and I adjusted them like stock and I have never had an on coming car flash me when I am on low beams. I will say when an on coming car has their brights on I hit my brights and they dim instantly. Best improvement I have made to any vehicle because for me it is a safety issue as I drive at night a lot. Under the right conditions they do freeze over. I drive in the snow often and had not had troubles until the the other day it was snowing very wet heavy snow and the temp was under freezing and I got a thick layer of ice on them.

Oh yes. Especially on the sides. Lit up both sides of the road which we worry about deer and animals down here a lot.
You aim them how you aim the stock ones. Look on the top right edge of the headlight between the headlight and the grill and you will see the adjustment screw. Vise versa on passenger side of course. At least I believe I remember then being there.

If you noticed in the headlight adjustment link, the EXPORT market Jeeps have a horizontal adjustment screw. You can order adjustment screws from the dealer like I did and install the to align the TL lights perfectly between the stripes on the highway. You will notice the "V" pattern from the TL's after you install them and see how the factory should have the extra adjustment screws to start with.
You can use the wall measurements as a starting guide but I aimed mine so I got the perfect distance where the "V" pattern gives me the brightest spot between the stripes and still not blind on coming traffic. It make take a few test drives at night to get where you want them to look, but it is well worth the time.
