I would first like to say this sight is great 
I purchased a 2003 vette in july of this year and love it. I want to replace the wires because I was told that the stock wires are basically cheap and do not last long. What are the best wires on the market and the best plugs for this car. Also I have attempted to remove one of the plug wires from the spark plug it self
there most be a trick to it because these thing are glued on.

I've heard that NGK TR-55's are good plugs. And welcome to the forum.

My car came with MSD's (bought it used), but the stock wires are not bad. I wouldn't change them unless they were giving me problems. Spend your money on something that will add power.
