The 0.6 millimeter laser welded fine Iridium tip ensures high durability and a consistently stable spark and the tapered ground electrode minimizes electrical quenching effect. Longer insulator nose, the corrugated ribs on insulator prevent flashover, and a triple gasket seal eliminates combustion gas leakage. Iridium alloy has extremely high melting point, giving it high durability to heat and electrical wear, perfect for today's high performance engines. Trivalent metal plating. Copper core aids in heat removal.

Best plugs out there, Denso are maybe slightly smoother - great value.

I have always use NGK for all of my car. Idle smoother, better gas mileage, slightly better throttle response. Quick installation and ease of mine for my car. Highly recommend!

NGK plugs are great, they didn't have all 4 for my Nissan, so had to buy them from another supplier.

I had'nt changed my plugs in the Honda civic 2002 for ~80k miles. I put a set of these in and my mileage jumped to ~42 mpg on the highway at ~60 mph. It took 30 minutes and I am saving $ on every fill up. These excellent sparks quickly pay for themselves rapidly. The one issue I had was oil pooled in a spark hole from a leaky valve cover gasket. Don't fear it, but you should clean it out with a shop vac before you pull the plug or the oil will drain into the cylinder on spark plug removal and your exhaust is going to smoke for a few minutes when you next start up! I'm very pleased it was an easy and profitable installation.

Works perfectly on my yaris with no adjustment required as they come pre-gapped to the same spec.Only negative was that it took over a month to ship...

Changed spark plugs on 2008 Mazda3 1.6 with this set of 4 spark plugs. Works very well and no more stuttering engine during idle. Highly recommended!

My Subaru had been running a little rough and it was time for new spark plugs so I decided to go for the upgrade and try iridium plugs. The old plugs had about 50k miles on them and were long overdue for replacement. The OEM plugs were platinum and I had been told that platinum plugs can last as long as 100k miles. That certainly wasn’t the case here as after 50k they were all fouled. I installed the new iridium plugs and suddenly my engine was like new again! The idle was quiet and smooth like it should be. I’ve also noticed a slight increase in fuel economy, but that’s no surprise after replacing fouled out plugs. Having only put about 1k miles on them so far I can’t say whether the BKR5EIX-11 Iridium IX Spark Plugs are any better than the OEM platinum plugs, but they’re about the same price so why not give them a try? Iridium is a much harder metal than platinum, with a substantially higher melting point, so these plugs are more durable and should last longer than platinum at least in theory. They don’t run any hotter than the OEM plugs, but with a finer electrode they require less power to generate a spark, which means they’re more efficient. I expected them to be pre-gapped, but since they’re not the OEM plugs for my Impreza 2.5i they weren’t gapped correctly for my car. I don’t know if it’s because iridium is a much harder metal than platinum and copper, or just that my hands aren’t as strong as they used to be, but I really had a tough time setting the proper gap of 0.44. Once I finally got them gapped I decided to save a lot of money and install them myself. I checked an online Subaru forum and some people said it was very difficult to change out the plugs on a 2008 Impreza. While I wouldn’t say it was easy, I definitely would not say it was all that hard. As long as you have a standard 5/8” spark plug socket, a 3” or 4” extension, a swivel bit, and a little bit of patience, I don’t see any reason to pay a shop or dealership a ridiculous sum of money to install them for you. Perhaps if you consider your time extremely valuable or maybe you spent a lot on your manicure it would be worth it, but you don’t need to be a master mechanic to install new plugs in an Impreza. If you prefer to leave such tasks to the professionals, no judgement here. I’m just a little short on cash right now and the dealership wanted an awful lot of money to swap out four spark plugs.
