opinion on BWD plug wires?
#11
They seem to meet your criteria stated above mike. However, they may be to low on your price tag.
High price does not always mean its the best!!! Take the dealership cost on things....great example! Im just trying to find more options for us all as sometimes we may need to explore new options....
The kingsbourne wires sell for $30 online as well. Thats pretty cheap too mike...but we all like them, right? Thanks for the reply too...you seem to know your way around a rover.
Im just wondering if anyone has had experience running these wires......?

And back on topic of the wires, for that price I'd say you can afford to test them out. The only hesitation I would have is that they are a b**** to change out. It took me so damn long just to do my plugs last weekend that I didn't even want to change the wires for fear I'd do something irrational in a blind rage Stupid secondary air.
I am amazed at how great my Rover is running after swapping just the plugs though.

I can get them through my business account at under $30. They sell for 54.95. They are of the highest quality. Heavy duty EPDM inner insulation, extra thick high temp silicone jacket. RFI absorbent shielding material, stainless steel alloy winding, Kevlar reinforced fiberglass core, premium acrylic-latex and come in 7mm or 8mm.

As for the Kingbourne wires, I have never recommend then and truthfully I am shying away from STI wires having heard a few to many people in the last 6 months have leaking wires. My main referal is going to be the Magnacor, I have nearly 9 years on my set with no tested issues.

If you can get what you have described for that price in a 8 mm wire, go for it, I will be curious to see how they hold up for you.

This is why I am looking at options.....I'll report my findings down the road... Hopefully they work out as I have some pretty big hands and dont look forward to the missing knuckle skin involved in this swap.
Thanks again Mike!
