Default What plug wires for LG headers?
Just what it says. The stockers hit the headers. Has anyone found a good fitting wire for this combination? And I don't need replys about how your ebay, xyz headers don't need different wires because they are so great, thanks!

Give me a call at the shop.

They should not be hitting anywhere.

Most of the cars use OE wires and OE heat shields. We also offer a HiPo wire replacement and you can keep the metal factory shields.

I just installed a set of AFR 205's and LG pros.
The rubber boot on cylinder 2 and 4 just touch the header.

I bought the plug wires LG sells when I bought their headers. They fit perfectly and have a protective cover woven into the wires.

HiPo wires with OE heat shields and LG Pro's here... Fit is nice. My OE wires never touched the LG Pro's either.
