Default Spark plug help.. Car spudders

decided to change plugs to normal maintence. The car is a 2000 ex with a B16 swap.. I pulled the old plug at and it was a NGK BKR7ES - went to autozone and asked for new plugs, they only had a sub. was a bosh plantium plug. i installed the platinum plug and the car spudders and shakes?.. i cant find the old plugs to re-install in the dumbster.. anyone hard of anything like this.. i went back and they said thats the proper plug for that car, so i changed the cap and rotor, no change, with this plug it spudders bad?
