Default Anyone use Bosch Platinum Fusion plugs?

I went to grab some new plugs today and they didn't have any NGK or Denso iridiums in stock. They did have some new Bosch Iridiums called "Bosch Platinum Fusion." I was wondering if anyone was running these. They look just like the Bosch Platinum 4 but with a Iridium core. Wanna get some feedback before I install these.

Anything other that the OEM plug is asking for serious trouble.

Search around and you'll see why...

There's not really any reason to use other spark plugs besides stock unless you need to run colder ones because you've got some sort of serious tuning or forced induction.

There is no such thing as Iridium/platinum plugs. It's one or the other.

I ran the bosch platinum 4's for 10k miles no problems, and i went to go buy the OEM NGKs and they were on back order for another week so I went ahead and bought the new bosch fusion platinum 4's. no problems the past 1k miles. but if you can get the OEM NGK there isnt any better plug then that.
