I want to change out my spark plugs in my 2004 530i. Who make the best performance plug for this car?

Thanks!

I put the following AutoZone plugs in mine and have not had any problems with them at all:

Autolite XP Iridium/Spark Plug (XP5325) | 2006 BMW 530I 6 Cylinders 3.0L EFI DOHC | AutoZone.com_

At $6.99 a piece, you can't really beat that price...

Plus, it appears that they now have a $20 gift card rebate(mail-in) if you buy 6!
