Default NGK Spark plug wires. Good? Bad?

Im looking at buying new spark plug wires due to my gas mileage problem might be caused by them. I was lookin at the NGK wires. Seems like a good brand. same as my spark plugs. I also like the blue color. Any opinions on these? or others? i really dont want red wires. Thats why im not lookin at magnacore.
thx

If there is one part that you keep stock, it's the plug wires (unless you are making 350+ HP) NGK is absolutely the way to go.

NGK=Good.

i believe ngk's are cheaper than oem which is why people replace oem w/ ngk. I've had no problems.

For OEM wires, try http://www.acuraautomotiveparts.net they're pretty cheap.. like $50-60 for the set?

I have NGK wires, so far so good... cost me about $40 from Summit. I would recommend them if you need niew wires, otherwise stay stock.

OEM wires are Sumitomo, not NGK. NGK are the stock plugs.

NGK is the best bang for the buck IMHO. Stay away from the cheap crap that AutoZone sells. I put a set of those on my old car and they only last a year, maybe two, before going out on me.

get NGK platnium plugs ... engine sounds more crisp with them.... also if you are gonna upgrade wires... just get a performance ignition ..Jacobs ICE PAK comes with heavy duty 8.5mm plug wires ..plus youll get performance and better gas mileage ..so that upgrade will pay for itself eventually
