I had a friend that swore by them to. Until he bought a pair. He has done nothing but bitch about them since. Price is good though.

Never used them

Don't know anybody that has either. Personaly, I don't think you need Nology nor Magnacore unless you've upgraded your ignition. Feed sells a set with the ground wire that's similar but it's $300. I upgraded to Vitek but that was because of the high heat resistance and i'm happy with Accell in my Honda.

They suck, I had them, they cost over $150.00 and isn't worth a penny. I had high rpm breakup big time when I used them (6K or higher), the car felt like it was going to die. As soon as I switched back to NGK oem wires the car purrs like a kitten. You've been warned!

You are right about one thing, they are ****. And not worth a single penny. The whole grounding thing, is BS to sell more wires. The Honda guys feel good about spending money on something like that, thats fine with me.
Get some Taylor, Racing Beat or Jacobs wires. You could also look into the Vitec (sp) wires, they are supposed to be good because they can stand up to heat.

I can't imagine better quality wires than Jacobs. I swear my engine idled better after I installed them.

I ALWAYS stay away from products that are super-hyped or are so expensive it's crazy. I always wonder if they are trying to make up for some deficit with marketing. Ground wires on spark plugs? Hard to believe there is ANY effect, and I would love to see the science behind that!

Make sure you replace the old sleeves that protect them from radiant engine heat or put some new ones on. You can buy the sleeves at any good hot rod shop.
It's the "professional" way to protect your new investment - and at about $55.00 for a set of wires that's a chunk O' change! Also a dab of dielectric grease on the boots (provided with most good wires) will help to prevent moisture and corrosion and make them easy to pop off when you change plugs in the future.
