Default Autolite Platinum question

Ok im thinking about buying these (Autolite Platinum AP5245) and was wondering if they are any good? I have bosch platinum 2's in there right now and im starting to get a little misfire. What should these be gapped at .55? Thanks

I was just told to go with Iridium instead of Platinum. Also just got off the phone with a parts guy. The spark plug all depends on what kind of car your putting it in. I don't know anyone that's to particular of Bosch, they tend to crap out before they normally should. I've always used autolites in my cars. Just don't spend the extra money for the splitfires... There is no difference in the way they work. Sometimes however they can put out less power because the spark is being split into two, which sometimes makes it weaker. As for the gap, I don't know. depends on your car.
