I fitted front & rears (with 20" wheels too) and likewise, never noticed much difference.

Post: RE: Dash full of lights and messages

I get similar when the battery is low (MY 2012, 31k miles), the only thing I can suggest is to make sure the battery fully charged or even still holding it charge if it's the original battery.

Post: RE: Exploding/melting HB3 bulbs

I think it depends if the 'exploded' bulb was OEM-spec or a cheap replacement. Cheap bulbs don't last as long, produce less light and have a tendency to go bang.
