Do you want to see in the fog, look cool or see further?

If you want to see in the fog, then yellow yellow/blue light is what you
want.  Bosch, Hella and PIAA make decent fogs

If you want to look cool then the projector lights are the cats meow!

If you want to see farther, then bigger is better.  I have two KC
Daylighters with 150W air-craft landing lights in them.... mmmmm... nice!
Again, Bosch, Hella and PIAA make nice driving lights.
