OEM wires are fine. You can also look at STI or Magnecor.
I have read some info that the Magnecor wires may not be the best for our cars but I (and many others) have been using them without any problems. Nology also makes wires but are needlessly overpriced.
My Magnecor 8.5mm Competition wires were about $90 a set. They make thinner wires for less money (7mm and 8mm, IIRC).

Get nology hot wires or STOCK (updated)
I'll go with nology hot wires, but they are pretty expensive (around $300). It really works, it provides smooth idling, better gas mileage. Try it & you'll believe.
IMO, better keep the stock wires if you want to get other than nology. Even original wire costs more than $100. BERU costs ~$113 and BOSCH cost $128 (alloemaudiparts.com).
Reality check: you'll get what you paid for.

I got the Bosch Ultra Premiums--very expensive but incredibly high quality . . .
Bosch even used the more expensive Beru connectors instead of the cheaper Bosch connectors on the Ultra Premiums. ****-compulsive German Engineering Minds Obsessed with Quality--ya gotta love it.

Will getting better wires have any effect on stock plugs?
For instance...will my stock plugs go bad rather quickly?
Are better wires any better for the engine? I have OEM bremis on right now.
