Default NGK iridium vs OEM Denso Spark Plugs

Been going back and forth and have gotten mixed reviews on which one to get.

What do you guys recommend? I am at 73,000 miles on my 2015 IS350.

It honestly shouldn’t matter as they are both iridium but I always go OEM just to play it safe. They are both really good Japanese brands.

NGK iridium are good to go, I ran them on my 600whp supra and had no brake ups, of course make sure your gapped properly

Keep in mind that one Cannot change the Gap on Iridium sparkplugs. Lexus says the Gap is: 0.043" or 1.1mm.
