OE are the TR5ix iridiums. Depends how many mods you have or planning to do. I'm not sure where you go from the 5 to the 6 on the plugs.Maybe someone else will chime in.

Hey bud you should get the factory or NGK irridiums only. TR5IX or one step colder are the TR6IX. Tr55 are regular 3$ plugs, if you can afford em. JMHO.
