Best 9003 H4 Bulb?

For a 1989 420 SEL with Euro lights, the main headlight bulb is a 9003 or H4 bulb. What is the best replacement bulb, in the 60/55 watt model?

I have been running a German made Bilux but one just burnt out. They only lasted about 2 years. I had a spare 9003 XV, Osram, made in Germany. Now I need a new spare set. I prefer to stay with the standard 60/55 watt bulbs.

Any recommendations?

I like European Osram Silverstar.

It's not poseur blue like USA Sylvania Silverstars and has some built-in life.
