Well its time for my car's tune up and I was wondering what you guys reccomend in the spark plug category?I ran NGK Iridiums for a while but when I took the plug out it looked like the engine was running Lean.

If you have a stock setup, run the stock ngk plugs. The are only about $2 each. anything more would be a waste of money.

I'd recommend beefier tires too. The edge of your wheel is sticking out.

Sorry, it's just a pet peeve of mine.

I would have gone with a set of NGK's or E3's

I hear ya.Except this is the only tire I can fit on the car so it wont rub.I was running 15's before these 17's and the inside of the tire tread wore quickly.After I put these 17's the problem was resolved.If I put a beefyer tire the rims will not fit.
I have heard of those E3's.Are they really what they say they are?Great in performance and fuel economy?

stock NGK (the $2 ones) will do.

I don't have them in my car, but the next time I do change my spark plugs they are the ones I'm getting. All my friends say that once they put them in their cars, they noticed a difference. I've never seen any dyno number or if any of them have done any mpg tests.
