I had bosch plat. +4's in my car when i bought it. Ran it for a while before replacing them with ngk tr55's. But they ran pretty good, no diff. in my own experience than the ngk's. Just changed to the tr55's because that is what the factory recommends.

Bosch makes some pretty high grade equipment. I dont know how people may judge the products they never use. Id sa bosch is a pretty safe bet. You more than likely will see 0 gain from many plugs, its all preference.

I had some +4's I bought for my SS and thankfully I never got around to installing them. In the meantime, I bought a low mileage Sierra that had some +4's in it and found out how bad they sucked. I sold the set I had on Ebay for 50 bucks and bought some AC Delco iridiums.
