Well, the 2011 X5 E70 doesn't have stock LED halos in the front, like the new style BMWs. Your claim/question about increasing the wattage is counterintuitive. If increasing the wattage made the LED brighter, this doesn't always make the LED brighter anyway, would still make the inner halo brighter than the outer halo. Both halos are illuminated by one light fixture, which originates from a socket behind the inner halo. The halos themselves are not LED 'bands' like the tail lights or the newer BMW headlights.
Regardless, I'm happy with my purchase. They look better than the yellow halogens and honestly, the inner halos are unnoticeably brighter when the X5 is driving toward you on the road. Only slight variations in brightness when you're standing 5 feet in front of the car.
