LR3 Brake Light Bulbs

LR Max

Stupid question: what is the best brand, etc for LR3 brake light bulbs for the tail lights? I've tried a few, but they all seem to not be as bright or not last long. I've heard there is some special requirements that are probably the root of my issue.

Thanks everyone.

I replaced my incandescent brake bulbs with red LEDs. The LEDs are rated at 900 lumens with 33 surface-mount-diodes (SMD). So far not a single SMD has burned out or flickered. And because the LEDs are red and the LR3 lens are red, the color when lit is a deep rich red.

There are the ones I got:
