What wires does everyone change to and why?

Just curious what everyone swaps to and where you get them? They are so short what did everyone use to determine the best ones to go with? I only have 30k miles on my car and wondering if it is even worth doing seeing how short they are. In the past when we had cars with long wires we would just measure the resistance from one end to the other to pick a winner. In the LS-1 World how has a "Best" been determined and is it really worth it? I only say this because todays wires are supposed to virtually last the lifetime of the car.

I did MSD wires when I did my header install. Probably didn't need them, but the "bendable" boots made them real nice to navigate away from the headers.

I'd probably leave them alone if you're not having any problems. But MSD wires are nice.
