Need your advice - which size lights to add onto my brand new MINI?

I have a 3-week old 2011 MCS R56. My first MINI, and I am in love!

After reading countless (helpful) threads on this forum on which brand and location, I have decided; I like the look of two driving lamps mounted in front of the lower grille, and I'd like to go with the PIAA driving lights.

My question is which size would look best for this location? The PIAA 540 is 1.5" smaller diameter than the Hella 500's for perspective (5.15" vs. 6.42"). The PIAA 520's are about .25" smaller than the Hella 500's at 6.25".

The 520's are 55 watts, and the 540's are 85 watts. Can the charging system handle the 85 watts x2 if I go with those?

What say you, O helpful members???
