What are some good aftermarket spark plug wires? And can someone explain the thickness and size of the wires and what they mean? I've always bought oem but want to see what's out there. Don't tell me autozone because that crap don't fit in cozy and its always loose. I need a good replacement for the celica. Thanks.

I'm using NGK TE44 wireset and it seems to be doing pretty well; paid $44 dollars for them last year.

Typically the best wires are going to be oem, unless you're crazy modified and are running a msd ignition....


However, twosrus is selling STI plug wires in their tune-up package. I ordered a tune up kit today, so I'll do a little review on them in a couple days.

unless your over 400whp, there is no need for anything other than OEM wires.
i used all OEM ignition components (other than plugs) on the 5sfte over 300whp without issue.
the magnacor wires are over 100$.

I'm telling you guys - go buy a set of STI wires from twosrus. I'll post some pictures when I get home. Amazing quality, and for $95 you can get the wires, new ngk plugs, and a new cap and rotor. Whole tune up for under $100.
