Question spark plug wires from fuel motto

I recently ordered new spark plug wires from Fuel Motto.. they are considerably larger then stock// My question is since the old wire holders {zip tie with a plug} I stuffed them well into the tank tunnel and I think far enough from the heads... Since they look like the can stand a few more degrees I hope I;m ok... your thoughts>?? suggestions on new zip ties????

I'd ask the vendor how they suggest running/securing them- just in case the wires cann't bend within a tight radius

and 2.) are these wires going to work with the ion sense?
if you see a check engine light, swap back to stock spec wires and plugs

( don't forget anti-seize on plug threads

die electric grease smear on the plug boot

I installed a set a few months ago, yes they were a little larger and stiffer than stock but with a very small dab of common mechanical sense they are easily routed as stock ones and with a little manipulation of stock holders fit perfectly. No codes.
