Default High wattage bulbs in fogs?

Has anyone had any experience with 85watt bulbs in stock foglights?

No, but I do with 100w No wire frying, discoloring, on anything. I do not drive with them on all the time though. I only use them at night on highways, or extra dark roads to minimize the time they are on. I have had them on continously for hours at a time with no negative effects on the highway. Either the air cooled them, or running high wattage is not a problem. Either way I keep them off unless needed.
hope thats what you were asking,
Grant - also has a set of 85w fogs, 55w fogs, and HID headlamps. (obsession?)
