I have a 30-something SMD LED bulb for my rear turn signals in the OEM blacklines. They seemed fine when I tested them out in the evening after installing them. The other day I switched cars with my friend and got to see them first hand in the day time, and you can barely see the turn signal.

You don't want to mess with visibility on your brake lights.
I agree however if I go for something that has something that projects more lights to the back, it will most likely be brighter.
