Actually quite the contrary.

As with a system you want to look for higher strand count, finer strands,tighter wound,etc... UnLike a system these wires will be imperative to how your car runs. Simply put the weaker they are is the weaker the entire cars electrical system is.

Technically speaking they can be beneficial, although it depends on the car. A vehicle with a poor ground to begin with would obviously have more benfits. Of course this is the case with Nissans.

I just dont believe in the whole marketing of them, very overpriced for something that is definately a DIY job.
