So I have a 55x27.5 tent looking to swap to 60x32. I already have a mars sp3000(with uv/ir) sold hlg 2 QB. Should I get the timber cob 3 daisies? My concern is since it's a different type led the hang heights won't match. Or should I get the Grow 300 ? Both look amazing and either will be paired with the sp3000. Any input is appreciated. Thanks!
Please advise light upgrade with new tent

If you’re upgrading to a 32x32x60 tent than the light you already have is all you need.
What would be your max budget?
Doesn't matter, I just don't want to waste one of the lights I have. I could back out of selling that 2 board hlg to my buddy. But I have that and the sp3000.i was also thinking sell the sp3000 and buy 2 of the grow 200 and stack those 2 and the hlg 2 board and put all 3 spaced out filling out the width. No budget.
If you have the chance to sell the SP3000 i would sell it. I didn't sell my Mars hydro TSL2000 when i could've, and now i'm biting myself for it. I could've buy a much better light for the same price. HLG, Timber, Chilled, OpticLED etc. they are all better quality brands than Mars. The lights will last longer and the customer service and warranty is better. Also if you have multiple lights it's easier to adjust the heights and mix with other tents.
But if you want a single light, maybe something like this?

He's going to a 60 x 32 so that's 5' x 2 ½' or so. The SP 3000 is great for a 2 x 4 (I've used one in my 2' x 4') but I can see trying to find something better since the area in the tent is 50% bigger. An issue is that the OP has a long narrow tent but most lights are designed for different shapes.
I've got the X3. It's a quality product.
I have 55x27.5 looking to go to 60x32 so the new is a little wider and a little longer.
I'm thinking ditch the sp3000 and keep the 2 QB spanned the width, then add hlg550 4 board. Then I sativa's on one side and have more room to adjust height. My other thought was keep the SP3000 and add 2 of those phat slims XL. Right now I have both lights drivers outside tent. And the boss told me I'm sticking with the 55inx27inx80in
Maybe this will help.
Here is a ILGM Zkittles Auto crop that yielded over a pound in my 32x32x60 tent using a $80 150 watt Maxisun
Here’s a 20 ounce ILGM Bruce Banner Auto crop that I grew in a 32x32 shower stall using a $215 240 watt Philizon
Here’s a 15 ounce ILGM Girl Scout Cookies Extreme shower stall crop using the 150 watt Maxisun
