Default 2000 Camaro

I just bought my car in June. It had 57k miles or about $8k. It's a V6 but I don't care about that. I don't need a V8 right now. I love it.. I absolutely love it. My roomate gave me **** for it being a coupe and her boyfriend at the time gave me **** for it being a V6. It's still better than there cars.. She drives a Plymouth Breeze and he doesn't drive cause his truck keeps dying on him. LOL I love it when people pick apart my car and they drive a crappy one.. I can rub it in there faces... LOL It's funny, they don't have anything good to say about it but they keep asking me if they can drive it. I want to keep it in the best condition possible. What's the best spark plug? I've always used Valvoline but now I see these new oils out and wonder if there better. What do you guys suggest? Also tires... Both tires on the right side have a slow leak so I need to get them replaced. Would like suggestions on those too please...

Honestly,...do'nt judge a plug soo much by the brand but rather the core material it uses. So whatever brand you buy (doesn't really matter) ... go with Iridium instead of Platnum. As far as oil,....I know you have a V6 hun and not a V8 so you really want to judge that on how you drive, the weather and your cars milage. Basically stick with the stock oil weight unless you drive like an *** hole. Go with what the manual says. I think its the same as what a V8 calls for which is 10w30. I like Royal Purple but alot of people like Mobile 1 which isn't a hard oil to track down.

Thanks. No I don't drive like an ***. Doing that uses more gas. I don't have that kind of money. I've had a couple people mention Royal Purple. It's the only oil sold in the racing shops here. I only put on about 40 miles a day, unless I go somewhere other than work which isn't that often. I work in the mountains so the past few days I've been driving in snow, eventually it will snow here in the valley too. Thanks for the advice.
