when you need to change them use OEM or NGK. From what I've read from SEARCHING OEM's give you the best output. I know someone did a write-up on the gains and losses of HP with 15 y/o OEM plugs against new NGK's and the OEM ones were better.

There are lots of posts about spark plug wires on this forum.
I just researched the subject myself a few weeks ago. OEM are just fine for your car - another popular one is NGK blue...

I however went with MSD wires - saw a good deal on them and went for it...

I dont think that the Nology wires are worth it, and from what I have heard they dont last long...

Nology wires are a waste of money.
