what to do?

A few months ago i bought the tune up kit from Late model restoration. The kit included some autolite 25's, Talor plug wires, cap and rotor. I never could get the plug wires to fully seat on the plugs with that nice, reasureing pop that you useualy get. I just figured that they were on and just didnt pop.
well, last night i got down and pulled the number 5 plug (or maybe it was the number 1) and put it on my old firewire wire and sure enough it poped in. i then put it on the taylor that was still in the car and noticed that the boot slid all the way down to the bolt and it still wasnt seated. Pushed a lot harder and got it to pop on but the boot is bulged out around the bolt like a spring and will eventualy push the wire off the plug.
So, do i call LMR and tell them whats up and try to get some different wires or do i just cut the boots and never buy Taylors again?
I should have just bought the msd superconductors like i had before and called it good

sounds like you got some ****ty wires. i had frpp wires on my 91 and they fit like a glove.

At this point youre probably stuck with the wires if its been over 90 days. If what Im reading is right the boot is too long. Simple trim the boot back a 1/4" and reinstall. Trimming it wont hurt how it functions.

yeh i thought about that, then i saw that i was able to slide the boot back on the wire moving the connector forward but the connection is still so bad that the end of the plug moves around in the wire. I guess that ill need to hunt up my plyers and see if i cant pinch the ends to make them fit better.

I am having the same problem with my ford racing 8mm plug wires... they keep popping off the plug. EXTREMELY frustrating to say the least.
