Default Which cables?

Hey guys, I'm about to order my Wild1 518 bars. Wild1's website lists part numbers for HD brand braided cables in the proper lengths. I was going to order these cables from one of the 20% off online dealers since I already know the part numbers. Is anyone using the HD cables that can comment on their quality? Should I consider something else? If so, what?

Thanks,
Rick

A buddy has them on his bike...no problems to note, typical quality that you would expect. The braids are holding up well, and they look good.

If the cables aren't covered with a plastic coating, remember to route them away from any rub points. That braid will eat paint, chrome, and anything else it touches.
