I've used 100/90s and they get real hot. I had 3 Sylvania bulbs that
actually melted the glass of the bulb. I can honestly say, other than
drawing more current they did not seem any brighter than the bulbs I
am currently using (60/55 Silver Stars) without relays. I get an
oncoming car flashing their brights at me about once a month.
Of course, if you like all the extra wires, relays and fuses/
breakers go for it. I did and found little benefit. 60/55s will be
easier to get off the shelf replacements for too. I ended up with 1
100/90 and a 60/55 on my way back from Key West last year due to lack
of availability. YMMV.
