The wires are adequate for their purpose. Can you please explain what is dangerous about charging the car battery via the lighter socket that is protected by a fuse (generally 15A) that is sized to protect the wiring?

If you are trying to jump start a car via the lighter socket then you are stupid and doomed to failure.
