Question tune up kit

Im going to do a tune up on my 97 I6 4L, i was wondering if this tuneup kit from performance distributors is a good buy. It says the wires are a huge 10mm and you can run a .065 gap on your plugs. Has anyone had any experience with this package or company?
thanks in advance,
aaron

Wow. Thats a big wire and a big gap. I had a Performance Distributor in an old 68 Chevelle Malibu and it seemed fine. Didnt have the car very long (like usual).

There's a company called Crown Automotive that sells complete tune up kits. Dont know anything about them, but JP Magazine used them in a recent project Wrangler and seemed to like there product.
