Okay.

Well to render curves in Rhino: Render -> Render Properties -> ON/OFF Render Curves and isocurves

But In a project last summer I where in same situation as you, and ended up making the curves into pipes.

I wanted them to be visualized as "curves" so I created a definition that fixed the radius of the pipes, so that the pipes fitted as "curves" for the camera (rendering).  This was by using Grasshopper. In that way I got "fatter" curves, actually rendered pipes.
