I want to get the best possible bulbs out there, my front driving lights (DRL's/front parking lights) are yellow and its driving me crazy, my Xenons are white but not very bright and would also like to upgrade them so if you guys have any recommendations for replacements for these bulbs it would be a great help.
 
For xenons I usually go for Philips extreme vision, or Osram Nightbreaker, last a long time and nice and bright.
If by driving lights you mean the 'angel eyes', then there are a couple of threads on how to modify the bulb holders, the bulbs are T4W type but they are glued into the holders, a couple of people including DLV have successfully managed to remove the old crappy dim yellow bulbs and fit some nice bright leds. On my list of things to do too.
 
Only thing to watch with LEDs is life, although the life of an LED is significantly longer than incandescent bulbs and is used to quote the reliability of LED bulbs, the reality is the electronic circuits driving the LEDs break down and it is not uncommon for them to fail or start flashing in less then 3 months.
 
I've done a how-to on the angel eye replacement..

they're still not super bright but look much better than standard yellow/dim lights.
