I second the suggestion using Hella housings. They direct the light so it doesn’t blind oncoming traffic, but can put out a lot of light. Then Sylvania silver star bulbs in all my sealed beam vehicles. In my Tahoe just the silver stars, which cut thru inclement weather very well. It was my winter tower, and search and rescue aid(when I was physically able to do that). And yes, wire in a relay system. Even newer vehicles usually run small gauge wire. My 91 gmc made a huge difference with the relays and Hella housings.

They sell complete relay setups if you don’t think you can build it yourself. Plug and play on the H4 housings, ground and battery wire.

I wired it into my 51 hiding the relays in an aluminum box placed inside the drivers side fender.
