Time for new plugs and wires for my car. I am looking at the ford Racing 9mm wires and the Motorcraft SP-432 plugs.

My car is pretty stock. My future plans include a few bolt ons, no Fi.

Any recommendations for something different, reasons why?

Thanks

When I had my 98 I ran OEM plugs and wires when the car ran the best. It wasn't happy with Autolites.

I've got Bosch wires right now. They're work well enough but the wire lengths aren't quite perfectly laid out like the Ford wires are and they're also not numbered like Ford's, which was a nice touch.

They were on a warehouse closeout at rockauto.com and were super-cheap which is why I grabbed them, even though I didn't need wires yet at the time. I'd probably go with OEM/FRPP wire next time.

If you buy 9mm wires be prepared to buy new wire looms. I have 8.5 MSD wires and NGK plugs.

Thanks for the replies guys! I am planning on using 9mm wires and modifying the alt bracket with looms that fit 9mm.
