I know those totally blow your budget, but you did say you wanted some "sweet off road lights", right?

If you're feeling frisky with your wallet, you could just go straight to "laser beams" (in my best Dr. Evil voice) https://www.bajadesigns.com/products/XL-Laser-High-Speed-Spot.asp

...cost aside, that narrow beam pattern would be nearly useless for a van, but boy are they "sweet!"

I went to Aluminess site to see what lights would fit/they recommend for your bumper and I’m really unimpressed!! They do not say how many watts or amps they draw,how many lumens they put out,led or halogen what light pattern etc.its ridiculous that you should have to look up specs on another site just to go back and give aluminess your money.they may be some of the lightest bumpers etc but they should put some effort into their website with the kind of $$$ they make.all you can do is add to cart?

Most dot approved lights might as well be mason jars with tea light candles! And for anything half way decent send you to bankruptcy court.if I was driving in blizzards like you my main concern would be makin sure I don’t drive off a cliff or rear end somebody.quick question what is protocol during blizzard do you run hazard lights so no one stretches your neck?

I have these lights I’m recommending for you,it’s over your budget but if you can live off of cup o noodle for a few weeks it will all work out for the best.5000 lumens each at 40 watts each,the dimensions and all info is in pictures.im installing these exact lights in a square version on my f150 and will run them full time since the optics wont blind people or piss them off
