Default Spark plug wires.

I didn't spend too much time digging around the forum for this one so forgive me if it has already been discussed.... I know that everyone likes the Magnecor wires for there tune-up but I was checking out Rockauto.com and found NGK wire kit and was curious if anyone had any imput on these for their Rovers... I know for Honda they are good stuff. Also the price ($25) caught my eye.

Thanks ALL

Just a note I did see the thread on 7mm vs 8mm and the Rockauto NGK being in the discussion but didn't see anyone that had used them.. at least not from what I read.

Anything new is an improvement over high miles oem that is developing little cracks, etc. 8mm will last longer in heat of engine bay. But at that price, you can afford to change them more often. I don't think people can point to better mpg or dyno power tests for a Discovery with 7mm vs 8mm. I could and often am wrong, but I believe most of the plus of the 8mm is service life. If the vehicle is driven by SWMBO in the transport of offsprings while you are multiple airports away on road warrior duties, I'd go with the 8mm.
