Changing spark plug wires? 850 1997

I gotta ask about this one....when my '94 855T was being revived by the dealer from my self-inflicted unpleasantness last month, the mech made a comment that my plug wires had "very high resistance" and I should consider replacing them. I haven't seen fit to do that yet, and am still puzzled about what would be considered correct resistance and what constitutes high resistance. In fact, I remember something about resistor spark plugs that force the voltage to build up to give a real hot spark instead of letting the spark bleed off too early. Anyone with knowledge on this one??
