Which Set?
 
I need plug wires, and obviously i don't want to spend a lot of money. Should i go with these OBX 10.2mm wires, or the Accell 8mm's.

OXB

Or, the Accell's

Is OBX Just cheap ricer crap? I know accell has been around for ages, but i'm tempted to go with the OBX's as they are thicker, unfortunatly the resistance of the OBX's isn't listed. Also, i hate the fact that they are yellow but the are they are priced the best with shipping to Canada.

Really? Would OEM be better than either of those?

OEM is a lot better than most people think. There is really no improvement to be had by wires, or tower caps, or other multiple spark madness, until you get up into some really high HP ranges on the Hondas.

I have a shitty old aftermarket set that came on the engine and one of them was fucked. I just wanted to pick up a fresh set, i guess i'll head to the junkyard and grab some Oem's

only 'upgrade' to be had by wires is to get ones with metal core, and not shitty fiberglass, graphite core bullshit

I'm not looking for an upgrade, just a half decent OEM replacement at a cheap price. Best price at the parts place around here is $60, and i can get the accell's for $40 to my door.
