Default stock speaker wire

I have a dumb question I was wondering what size is the stock speaker wire is in the 350Z? I have a alpine MRVf450 amp some CDT speakers and was wondering if i should run new speaker wires to the CDTs? Or will the stock wire be plenty good enough?

Stock speaker wire size is 20 or 22 (I'd have to go look again but it's small potatoes). I've ran up to 250 watts through the stock Z wire for about a week then decided to change things (add in a set of tweeters and move my crossovers to the rear of the car). At that point I ran 12 gauge wire to the doors which was a freaking *****! Honestly, unless you're going to run over 100watts power to them I wouldn't worry. After 100 I'd personally start to consider 18 gauge speaker wire. I only went to 12 because I'd like to one day get a good 400 watts up front.
