Hello, have a 2012 Silverado and just installed after market led low beams, I also noticed that the LEDs don’t seem to projects as far as incandescent bulbs.I have determined for myself that they actually do project as far as the incandescent bulbs since all signage farther ahead of me which is reflective,is bright and clear.The led light is a different frequency than incandescent light so it appears different to you because you are used to the incandescents.When I put the LEDs in my truck my son said the LEDs take some getting used to and he is right because of the difference in frequency.If the signs 500 ft in front of you are lit up,you have plenty of light,if they are not lit up then they are not aimed right,also noticed signs are much more crisp with leds/frequency.The back of my truck also sits high,2wd,I guess that’s normal for today’s trucks to counter more weight from back seat passengers or when you load the bed down.
