Spark Plugs

Im trying to figure out what kind of plugs to get for my car. What is the difference between the platnum and the iridium plugs. And which are better for my car. I don't have any mods in it yet. But im getting an intake and exhaust.

For your money, copper plugs are the best as far as performance if u don't mind the maintainence-i.e. changing them every 20,000 miles. BTW, u should really search before posting, this has been discussed a hand full of times and the post-****** are going to dig into u for it.

it's more likely if your spark plug wires are bad.
