my taylor spiral core lasted 4 years, and could probably go more but a couple of the spark plug boots are cracking at the thumb grip. they come in red and blue with black dist boots and respective red or blue plug boots. i find the blue a bit LA-LA for my taste..
you could try NAPA, their wires are good, i use them on my dailys, i think they are dark blue with black boots.

Summitracing has a bunch in black (e.g. http://www.summitracing.com/search/P...lug-Wire-Sets/) and dearbornclassics has accurate repro versions (although pricey), just wasn't sure about how to compare insulation/ohm resistance, etc quality of one to the other.
