Outside diameter doesn't mean jack unless you plan to lay them across a header or whatever. Inside is what matters. What kind did you buy?

i just got some relatively cheap obx "6max" wires. they are yellow and look better than stock, the fitment is not great but its not that bad. the car seems to idle and rev smoother, or i might be imagining(sp?) things.
