the white ones would make your taillights brighter, the red ones will make them not as bright but a deeper red, it's your choice on how you want it, bright tails or deeper red tails...

go on superbrightleds.com or autolumination.com

http://autolumination.com/3157_3156.htm

2x 3157 Red or white led bulbs for the brake lights
2x 3157 White led bulbs for the reverse lights
4x 3157 Amber led bulbs for the front turns and rear turns
4x 194 red led bulbs for the rear side markers and the taillight outside markers
2x 194 amber led bulbs for the front daytime running lights
1x 194 white led bulb for the license plate light
2x EL12 flashers for turn signals and hazards

here is someones car with white leds






lol you can always do this

thanks this really helps me out, i think the whites would be too bright for me but im not sure cause i would need to see a pic of the deeper red look too, i just put the 3157 led whites in my reverse lenses and it looks sickkkk at nite, so now im gonna change the brake light ones, so that when u left off the brake light, the bulb goes out fast just like a cadalliac lights would i hope?
