97Corolla, adjust your lights properly. You should upgrade to different bulbs. Typically, Sylvania LL have low light output (they're designed to last long). Silverstars have been successful so far to others who used them.
A compromise would be Silvania XV lights, not as expensive as Silverstars but nice light output. I'd hate to see your wife driving such a car, let alone NOT see in the dark. I know you love your wife that much, and you want what's best for her. Stick with OEM lenses, adjust and aim properly, and swap some nice bulbs in them. Hate to say it, but OEM lenses are really not that good, especially US versions.
Off road solution would perhaps be to install high wattage bulbs. 80/100. Check your wiring and electricals before jumping in.
