Default What spark plug wires?

Any suggestions on the best wires? I have had bad luck with the Taylor wires in the past but they seem to be pretty popular. I was leaning towards MSD wires, any thoughts. I don't have headers now but hopefully will in the near future so what would be good with headers?

I've had taylors and they kept coming apart. The MSD's have seemed to hold up ok but the long boots are good for getting burned on your exhaust. The next set I'm going with is going to be GM. I don't think the wires do much but lighten your pocket a little bit.

I'm not one to overkill on things so I am running denso or whatever the stock replacement is and stock coils pushing over 600RWHp.

I run solid core wires, they actually improved idle over the high dollar taylors.

i run msds and with the adjustible boot angle they don't touch on the JTR headers. i haven't run into a problem with the msds yet either.
