revolvolution09 Posted January 7, 2013 Report Posted January 7, 2013 Anybody use or tried OBX Duel Iridium spark plugs?
revolvolution09 Posted January 7, 2013 Author Report Posted January 7, 2013 On ebay they want $50 for 4 of them, so was just wondering if any good.
RobT5M Posted January 7, 2013 Report Posted January 7, 2013 O.o $50 for 4.... ill keep buying my trusty $1ea bosch coppers every 20-30k miles
cruzer555 Posted January 7, 2013 Report Posted January 7, 2013 Most people seem to like OEM Volvo plugs. That's all I've ever run and they've treated me well. About $50 for a set of 5
MattyXXL Posted January 7, 2013 Report Posted January 7, 2013 20-30k miles Shiz-nit Change mine every 12 to 15k... $7 for 5 Bosch and done...
RobT5M Posted January 7, 2013 Report Posted January 7, 2013 Shiz-nit Change mine every 12 to 15k... $7 and done... Remember when I insisted on changing nice looking plugs when we did the valve seals? Those were on there from 195k till 223k. Id do oem before obx for that price.

revolvolution09 Posted January 7, 2013 Author Report Posted January 7, 2013 OBX says they were tested to last up to 60K!
Yea-but... Posted January 7, 2013 Report Posted January 7, 2013 We all know whats about to happen, so ill try to do it in one post Iridium is stuff. More then one electrode is stuff. Dont pay that much for spark plugs. Buy coppers. /thread OBX says they were tested to last up to 60K!
s_moneh Posted January 7, 2013 Report Posted January 7, 2013 relying on that figure is retarded. i dont understand y ppl cheap out on plugs and do them once every 60k i do mine once every 3 oil changes like they r cheap enough to do so. that shit wears out once u reach close to the 60k mark they definatly dont run as good as the new ones would + if u have seen some of their exhausts i'll just have to say goodluck with those plugs lmao
magicaljake Posted January 7, 2013 Report Posted January 7, 2013 seriously.. bosch coppers every oil change..... not to difficult
98t5M Posted January 7, 2013 Report Posted January 7, 2013 I have a bit over 19K on my OEM plugs right now and they work perfectly. I had 30K on my last set and they were still great but I figured it was due to change them. Gap on those was at like .030-.031 when i took them out. I literally think for any normalish build with a properly running engine OEM plugs would probably work well to 50K miles or more, if you regap them once or twice in that time frame.
Matty Moo Posted January 7, 2013 Report Posted January 7, 2013 I wouldn't buy them if they were $10 for a set of 5.
