the 3764 is the more consumer grade "Iridium IX" whereas the 4589 has a larger electrode and better suited as a long-term replacement.

personally i went with some NGK V-Power Copper plugs, better spark than Iridium and i don't mind changing mine out every 15k-20k miles.

Took out the OEM plugs and they were pretty much COMPLETE toast. 120k mi. Iridium plugs are fail.
