Default Iridium vs Platinum

SPARK PLUGS:

Denso Iridium plugs are much harder and can withstand more heat than platinum, but only with single ground electrode. Bosch Platinum +4 gives 4 ground electrodes but is made of platinum instead of iridium. What do you guys have to say about this and what would you choose?

Denso Iridium: $11.99 each

Bosch Platinum +4: $5.99 each

Default RE: Iridium vs Platinum

Considering all the work that needs to be done to replace the plugs on your V6 (based on your avitar)- I wouldn't risk anything other than NGK or ND Iridium plugs in your engine. Bosch plugs work well in Euro engines but just don't seem to run well in Asian Imports.
