Question My Spark plugs look alittle funny, what do you think?

I just changed my plugs after 3,500 miles on them. Im running NGK BPR8ES at .28 The car is untuned as of yet.

The bottom two pics look ok to me. The top two it's kinda hard to tell with the flash.

The plugs will have a white or discolored/blue appearance if you are running lean. In a perfect world you want them to be a lightish brown color.

Yeah they look ok to me. Evo's run pretty rich from the factory so a simple intake and exhaust isn't going to hurt much. Should deff get a tune to get the most out of them though
