I've heard NGK-V. I believe NGK's are best on Imports and Bosch on domestics.

The NGK-R are the best for our cars. Its a colder running plug.

If your runnign a stock motor keep to the stock specs for plugs and wires, your cars computer is setup for them, Going to a performance plug or wires won' tdo anythign for you because your computer hasn't changed and neither has the amout of air or fuel been changed. unless your running a CAI or turbo or you got sport headers adn exhaust changing you plugs or wires to performance is just another way to spend cash for nothing but bragging rights.

I did OK with the Bosch +4's, but I just replaced them with the NGK-v. For the cost, I would say the NGK-v's are the best choice.
