Default Anyone used Accel plug wires?

I'm trying to find a set of plug wires locally because I have some time this weekend and want to change my old Nology set with 30,000 miles on them. One of the parts stores has Accel 8.8 wires in stock but I don't know anything about them. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks, Tom

I use the high-Ohm, high-temp resistant Accel 9000 wires.
Any quality wire should work fine. My mech was more worried about header heat and burnt wires than all the low-ohm focus as a bolt-on thing.

I'm also running the 9000's. I've had them on for a month with no problem. I've still got a fairly stock setup, so heat wasn't an issue. :)
