Best 2.2L Spark Plug Wire Set

I have a 2000 Camry LE with the 2.2L engine and 120K miles. The dealer advised me that it was time to consider changing the spark plug wires. I do not want to spend the BIG bucks to buy a Toyota set of wires. I was wondering what the best aftermarket set of spark plug wires is? There's Bosch, NGK, Denso, Standard, Prestolite, Autolite, MSD, and others that I am not remembering. I'd appreciate any feedback on this topic from forum readers Thanks! for Toyotanation

Get the NGK TE58. Bosch isn't good for our cars. Denso would be okay as well. The other stuff would not compare with NGK or Denso.

I found prices here are pretty good.

http://www.sparkplugs.com

NGK TE58 is $29.95
Denso 671-4144 is $49.50

I tried various brands also over the years and found NGK or Denso to work the best as well.

^ what they said. NGK TE58 (for gen4 camry 2.2L) are FTW!
other than that get Denso or OEM, no Bosch wires, they suck and are garbage out of the box, tried 3 sets of them and all were faulty.

The NGK or Denso wires would be my choice. They are probably the OEM supplier for Toyota for those parts. Just don't get the NGK racing wires.

Good call on NGK wires. Cheaply priced and reliable.

I installed the NGK wire set on my 97 Camry last week. they look great in blue and they seem very sturdy. I paid $37. at a local auto store here in Detroit. But I saw a set on Amazon for about $25.
