Looking for high-wattage 3157 bulbs

I am looking for high wattage 3157 bulbs, I don't want led's but thats all I can find searching online. Wondering if any of you have found any, I have seen 50watt 3156s but not 3157. Thanks in advance.

You mean a higher-wattage S-8 plastic wedge base bulb?

No such thing as a 3157 that doesn't have the specs of a 3157.

3457's look to be slightly higher wattage, but in the "stop" filament only.

I got the 3157 Sylvania bulbs, they say their better built so the package says. Check Wal-mart or K-Mart if you have one up there, its where I got mine.

I found the 3157s in Sylvania Silver Stars at Autozone-they claim to be 30% brighter than "regular" bulbs-they are in my tail lights and are nice and bright but I'm not sure about 30% over stock.
