Default Spark Plug Wires

What brand wire sets are ya'll running. I went to order my blue 9mm JBA's and they are on back order for like 3 weeks. Any other good brands out there?

I may be wrong but arent plug wires just a waste of money??? I thought i recall they dont show anygains over the stock wires and if they do they are really short and barely reach the sparkplugs.

The wires are the same length as the stock wires. I wouldn't expect much ingains butthey do dress up the engine compartment nicely.
I wanted thelow resistance, silicone jackets and wire wound mag conductorsfor my FI application.... in red

I'm just going for color (blue). Is anyone using stangwires? JBA's are on b/o for 3 weeks. UGH! And I believe I have 9mm on already. The 8mm won't fit, right?

How hard was it to put the braided sleeve on your radiator hose? Do you have to drain the coolant and take it off or is there a way around that. Looks sweet under the hood.

Not hard at all
The hose has to come off to install the braided cover.
