Anyone know where to get Spark Plugs?

Looking for Denso Iridiums. What is it, the IK22's? I need the ones that are one step colder. Where can I get them at. Tune this Sun. Need ASAP
Thanks,
Jeff

+1 for Gruppe-s and the one step colder NGKs. They work great Jeff. I need to go pick up some new ones soon. Mine are a little gas fouled right now.

+1 these guys are great, cheap and super fast shipping. Tho, if Gruppe-S has them in stock you can't beat that.

I used to get NGK's and Densos at Geary Auto Parts in SF. I'm not sure if they stock Iridiums, but they get stuff pretty quick and have very good prices.

At that price it almost has to be. Of course you'd have to change them more often though than iridiums or platinums. So it's a cheaper proce per plug, but lasts 1/4 the length of the more expensive plug.

Monument auto parts in San Ramon or Livermore. Not sure where else their located, but a 1 step colder NGK Iridium is a BKR7EIX (the # goes up for colder and down for lower). I just put these in my car 2 days ago. NGK also makes plats and coppers if you want them too. All of them are the BKR series though except for the stock plat.

Nasioc has a good post on sparks. http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/show...spark+plug+FAQ

Oh yeah, we run the same sparks as my bro's lude so Black Trax in Milpitas will have them too. That's where I got them.

Not a 1/4. I've had a set in for over 50,000 miles and haven't had any problems.

Are you kidding me? You've had coppers in for over 50k miles?
