Default Which spark plugs to go with?

Hey guys, I picked up some Bosch Platinum +4's today because nobody seems to have NGK's. They cost me $24. I now have a few options:

1.) Use them.
2.) Return and get cheaper ones.
3.) Return for NGK's.
4.) Return and get Denso Iridium's for $40 (friend can get me this price).

I have a freshly rebuilt stock B16, for the record.

Thanks,

Goldfingiz

No kidding. If I'm spending more than $6 for spark plugs, something is wrong.

(unless I was turbo or s/c..but that's a different story)

Thanks guys I've been hearing bad things about Bosch with them fouling all the time. These things are going back.

I think I'm going to stick with the -$10 plugs, unless I splurge for the Denso's...not sure yet =\

You can get Iridium NGK's for $7 each @ http://www.clubplug.net/

I suggest: BKR6EIX-11 (3764)
PFR6L-13 is stock
