I have a 96 Corolla DX 1.8 and was wondering what everyone recommends for spark plugs. should i just call the dealer and buy the ones they sell?

the cheapest Pep Boys sells are AutoLite Copper ones, but I'm not sure if I trust them.

Denso copper or Denso U-groove, cheap. gap them at every other oil change and change every 30k.

I bought some Denso Platnium Twin Tip awhile back that have been fine, but I bought them on sale (they were as much as normal plugs would be) and wouldn't have paid full price. Because my old ones were so worn it's also hard to say if there was an increase in efficiency over OEM ones. Still a pretty good product though I think.

Thanks for the replies guys. So it sounds like go OEM or go with a mid level platinum plug. I think I'll go OEM plugs this time, along with wires from Pep Boys.
