Anybody want a set of NGK Platinums? They have about 20k to 30k miles on them. Should be good for another 80k to 100k miles. I just got a set of NGK Iridium IX for my car. The Platinums are free. You pay the shipping.

You got em!! You responded first. I will check on the shipping fees. I will only charge you what the USPS charges. Do you want them insured?
