Bosch 4418's?

Getting NGK's (copper) is a hassle, and 10 bucks for their platinum plug insane. I picked up some Bosch 4418's yesterday at $5/each. Before I started wrenching, wanted to see if anyone had trouble with these; it's going into a stock 2K.

Thanks!

These are +4's, so I assume that's for the 4 electrodes instead of 2. Sounds like it's fine, there were way too many choices for plugs. Thanks!

i did the same thing you did... buying bosch plat4s from the recommendation of the guy at the auto store. but after doing some research and getting flamed from my mechanic friend, i went back to switch them to ngk coppers. like you said, your car is stock... why not keep it that way. a couple of extra bucks for peace of mind is worth it -- stick to OEM.

I have been using the Bosch P4 no problems so far. I'm not going to pay $10 for NGK plugs which are basically the same, so why pay more $$$$$$
