Are 7mm plug wires the standard size for my car? Are there any benefits from using 8mm? From looking around I've gathered that the NAPA Belden plug wires are some of the best to get.

Yes stock is 7mm, and the beldens have a life time warranty.

Beldens are great. Aside from the time I burned one on my exhaust manifold and had a really interesting trip home, I've had zero problems with them. I'm planning on getting a set for my truck soon.

Thicker wires generally only add insulation. Not performance.
