Default changing plugs necessary?

Hello all -

MY 01 LS has ~135K and runs beautifully - I know the plugs are supposed to be changed at the 120K mark but I didn't get around to it - now I'm wondering should I just wait until I see/feel signs that they need to be changed or are their potential consequences for not changing them?

Thanks

Change them. It is expensive to do but why risk it? You got 135K out of them, do yourself a favor and don't wait for something to happen.

1 hour of your time and 60 dollars for the plugs isnt worth a 100 dollar or more tow bill.
