I would order them from Thunder Recing just for the fact they have GREAT customer service... but, anywhere that has them in stock should work out just fine. As far as I know, no parts stores carry them....

TR55s are pre-gapped at .059 I believe.
I get mine locally at Discount Auto Parts, if you have one up there.

You can get them next day through your local Advanced Auto or similar for $11 or $12

OK...This is probably a dumb question...but what is the advantage of these over stock plugs?

Get the TR-55's and gap 'em at .050"; that's what I did.
