What's wrong with some NGK from your local parts store for $9 a piece?

lol don't be scurred yo. Get the Bosch or NGK OEM equivalants. Your car won't know the difference and your wallet will thank you.

If you're that pressed on reducing the chances of having a misfire then leave your car stock to begin with.

The Bosch brand and the BMW OEM are the same plugs, just with different labels. They have the same exact part number. ZGR6STE2. I have COBB and replaced with the Bosch for $10.40 a piece online. No misfires.

I don't want to start a debate, but the electrodes are clearly different. I installed oems from bmwmercedesparts.com for $14.50 and have the piece of mind I wanted.

Not only are the oe and bosch plugs exactly the same, it is highly likely they are made in the same factory on the same production line. This is how many aftermarket parts are produced.

The electrodes are not different. I have had both. They are exactly the same. One will not give you better performance or less misfires than the other and the bosch are cheaper.
