Default Best place to buy spark plugs? & also which ones?

Hi all,

It's that time again that I need my spark plugs replacing.

Could anyone recommend the best place to be some new ones from? & which ones I need?

Thanks Brent

+1 for s2ktuning! I bought some from him too. The right spec and the right price. We're delivered to my door within 2 days too!

Cheers all - I've just dropped Andy a call to see if he can help.

Might even grab some oil off him as well as I could collect looking at his website

^^^ you don't want iridium tip ones. They tend to crack and fail. Just search on this forum for threads about it.

In the uk, for reasonably priced platinum plugs, s2ktuning is a safe bet.

Mmm I just had a read up as I've just fitted NGK Iridiums and you got me worried. The failures have all been around Denso Iridums from what I've found. Am I missing something?
