Spark plug wires question

Hi.
To my surprise I discovered that my two 200tq have different resistance
of spark plug wires. Both Bosch with loom, but one has ~6200 Ohm and
another ~5000 Ohm. The spec per Bentley is 5 KOhm. The car with ~6
KOhm wires has good spark. Spark tester measures 20 KV on coil wire and
10-14 KV next to spark plug. The car with right (5 KOhm) wires has low
KV on the coil wire (coil or power stage is a suspect) so I can not
compare KVs measured next to plugs on two cars.
My question: Is wire resistance different for different model/make?
Does it mean that I have wrong wires?
Thank you.
Konstantin.
