50-60K miles is the life you can expect out of copper. Platinum is 100K or a little less.

The recommended platinum change range is 60k, not 100k. If you have copper, it's 30k miles.

I've found that with the coppers, you should still change them every 15k miles. By then, the electrodes were rounded off on the corners. -NGK BKR6E-11 in B18C1.

Very true. I change them between 10k-15k
