Intrdusing my spark plug

I pulled my spark plug last night to check on one of them and I was shocked how bad it looked. I ordered IW24, which they are one step colder and some NGK plugs and I will try both and see the difference. Sorry for the bad pic as it was dark out side. I will take some more pics today. Look how bad it looks.

Sounds like you might be a running a little lean? Are they very white ? That pic is to blurry to make anything out.

if they are white to tan they should be fine. How many miles are on your plugs? I pulled mine at 13k miles and they looked like yours.

they are TAN to a bit white. i am not running lean as I can see my A/F ratio, far from lean. I had mine on there for 16000 miles with no problems. However, They look burned in real life. My friend was kinda surprized when he saw them. anyways I think they are foulded or something. i will install new once by TUE. does anyone know what the TRQ spec is?

That plug color is perfect. Pic is too fuzzy to see anything else.

The condition of the plug means very little unless you turn off the car while just after running WOT.
