Anyone else think the GM red wires are crap?

I replaced a cheaper set last year with the GM red wires because I heard these were the 'ones' to use. Today I decided to check the plugs for any unusual wear. Plugs were fine but the wires suck! One apparently popped loose of the plug end and was, I guess, bridging a gap of spark for who knows how long. The inside was white with powder and the plug end starting to corrode. All the other plug ends of the wires were loose. I'm assuming this is why the one popped off.
I replaced all of them back to the cheaper brand I saved. Had a firmer 'click' when attaching to the plug compared to the red ones. Running MUCH better now. I'm thinking that cylinder is firing more efficiently now.
Maybe a bad batch of wires? The ends just seemed too loose on the red ones. Any one else have bad experiences with the red wires?
