Default 8.5mm wires ok?

I just ordered some MSDs from this guy and he sent me the 8.5mm superconductor wires, not the 8mm. Was just wondering if this will be ok to run in my car that is basically stock except headers and exhaust?

It is just the thickness of the insulation. . . Makes no difference what so ever.
