IRIDIUM Spark Plugs

I am looking for opinions on the NGK IRIDIUM IX sparks plugs. I was told that they perform just as good as the platniums and they are a little cheaper.

Iridiums are not cheaper than platinums.

Not sure what to say. The Iridiums were $6.00 and the Platniums were $11.00.

I should have done some additional searching on the site before I sent the previous email inquiry. The consensus seems to be to stick with the platnium. 60k versus 30k and the performance is the same.

Thanks...

Those are the iridium 4. Those are the cheap ones, you have to get the more expensive ones there like 12 dollars each.

NGK coppers, baby. $2 a pop. So what if you have to change them more often, we like to do that. That's why we're org members, right?
