Spark plug wire selection

I was just curious what preference people have on wires or if one paticular brand provides an advantage over another. And yes I realize most people on here are going to tell me that NGK is the one they would use but I'm sure other people have used the other ones on my list and I was just curious what their experience was with them. I also don't remember all the sizes of the wires. Does the thickness of the wire make a big difference? I went to a bunch of stores and my choices are:

BWD (Borg Warner) Spark Plug Wire Set: Sure Spark - 15.99
Duralast Spark Plug Wire Set - 15.99
Niehoff Ignition Power Spark Ignition Wire Set - 16.99
Niehoff Ignition Ultra Ignition Wire Set - 18.99
Autolite Ignition Spark Plug Wire Set: Professional Series - 19.99
Napa Belden 7mm - 20.99
BWD (Bord Warner) Spark Plug Wire Set: Nascar Select Premium Wire Set - 25.99
Bosch Spark Plug Wire Set - 26.99
NGK Plug Wire Set: OEM - 32.99
Accel Custom Fit 300+ Thunder Sport 8mm - 50.99 or 25.00 from my friend
Accel Spark Plug Wire Set: Custom Fit 8.8mm; Spiral Core - 79.99
MSD Custom Spark Plug Wire Set; Red Super Conductor 8.5mm -114.99

I use the DIY Accell V8 kits from the auto parts store. I think they are around $30 and you can make two sets for your 7. They are 8mm.

I've used the MSD's above too and notice no difference in performance...
