Default spark plugs

Just out of curiosity, as I have no intention of changing the plugs with only 17k miles, if I buy NGK PFR7G-11S from summitracing.com, will they be the right gap? Or do I have to buy them from a dealer?

Thanks

Yea, they should be gapped - mine were.

I also dont think you want to try gapping them yourself, just verify the gap is correct and throw them in.

Sure don't look like an iridium plug to me, there's no i letter in the plug number. Or am I way wrong?

I think iridiums are all gapped properly, unless you're FI.
