I like the Taylor 10.5mm wires. I have them on my C6Z and they seem to work great and look sweet too.

I've never understood why one changes out wires. I remember a wire dyno article back in my rice Honda days. Thicker or red cover, the differences were minimal. So it really boils down to looks.

Personally, I'd rather put the wire covers over the wires to protect them from contact with heat sources.

Sorry about being a Debbie Downer on the subject.
