Spark Plugs - Opinion?
 
Looking at two different set of spark plugs. Which ones should I get? I know which one is 'better' but is there going to be a real difference? There is a $20 price gap and I'm just wondering if it's worth it.

Thanks in advance for the responses.

You should be able to get the NGK or Denso iridium plugs for around $8 apiece. They will last at least 125k miles or more. Please just dont try Bosch, they will cause you major headaches on this engine (Platinums)
the Denso are only $7.25 here:

Thomas's advice is spot on. Use ONLY the iridium plugs. Don't try and save money by buying the platinum, good plug but nothing like the iridium. Denso or NGK- they are equal in quality.
