how can you tell wheather the blue NGK spark plug wires are real and not knock offs. i orderd some from ebay and wanted to know. they came in a box that wasnt sealed but just flaps to close the box. anyone kno the core size of ngk wires? is it 7mm? or 7.5mm.

 

I have bought mine from www.rockauto.com As far as I can remember they were not sealed either.
Sorry I do not remember the sizes.

Test the resistance and then do it again after 50k miles. I guarentee they don't last nearly as long as the ones Honda puts in.

 

i would put some oem honda plugs, but they to expensive, and i found blue ngk wires for a cheaper price.

 

And what kind of plugs do you think Honda uses?

EDIT...I thought this was about plugs...not wires.

 

I bought mine at sparkplugs.com and i still have my stock ones if you want i'd sell it to you, i have no clue on how you would know if its a knockoff but what i had seems to be decent and it came with the box and everything

 

wat year car u got tthats for the plugs? how many years have they been used? if ur car is an 01 i dont thoink those will fit me car. 94 ex accord...

 

oh yeah my bad i have an 01 accord

 

I've used NGK wires on my car in the past and they worked great. I really liked them. However, I ultimately paid the extra and just went back to Honda OEM.

Run the NGK-R wire if you're going to use NGK or you could really step up to Magnacor.

 

why would u go back to honda oem wires? i would too but they more expensive cuz its oem. i found a good price on ngk blue wires tho.. soo i guess ima get them. i just hope they as durable as honda oem wires, the ones i have in my car are like 8-10 yeras old and still run great, its just that the rubber coating is wearing down a bit now.
