Seems there are mixed reviews on the iridiums, but everyone seems to like the regular ol' copper v-powers. I just stick with the TR55s, and they work great for me. And trust me...I'm one to spend tons of money on useless ****

I think it comes down to how often you feel like replacing them. If I were spraying I would go with the regular plugs, but for a daily driver running the stock temp plugs that you do not want to replace for the next couple of years, I would go with the high dollar irridiums.
