I usually buy the kit at auto parts and cut them myself. They work great.

Screamin Eagle 10mm is good.

I went with the Thundervolt 50 10.4mm wires from Sumax, they work good and in my opinion are absolutely beautiful.

I also use their Extreme Duty battery cables and love them too.

And before someone says it, I will say it myself, these cables are way overkill but I'm just that kind of guy.

Any spark plug wire is good (as long as it's not copper cored) the fatness makes no difference to performance whatsoever but 10mm ones will make your ***** grow an extra inch....
