shouldn't be much of a difference or would there be?

I can't see much difference between those 2 .
But alot of parts houses give you a 1 year warranty for the cheap ones
for moe money you get a lifetime warranty ,same part .. sometimes , this is not on everything, the extra money covers the cost if it fails after the 1 year period .
Try to go with a name brand ,like Bosch.
I would not personally go with the cheap one's you do get what you pay for ,look for mm size ,and lowest resistance wires.

i'm hoping to start a swap in a few months. do you think it's worth spending extra money for the short amount of time i'll use them. about how much are bosch? guess i could call cause then i don't have to pay shipping in stock. i just think my car may not be firing on all 4 cylinders all of the time. new plugs, cap looks good.

thanks

I can't remember how much mine were ,$24 or close to that .
Even though you are going to swap, I can't say for sure I have not done that yet ,but the same wires should work on the swap ,I may be wrong
Matt will they work :lol:

[ajb999]

if they do it would be worth it. w/ shipping the cheap ones would still be around $15 so what's another $10 for a lifetime warranty.

If your doing a SOHC engine swap then they will work. The DOHC engines use a different style rubber end. I'd probably go with the $10 wire set since it's a name I've heard of when it comes to wires. But they are all probably made by the same chinese kid in some sweat shop anyways.
