Default Spark plug stores

Anyone know where I can get some good, decently priced spark plugs? My car is acting up and I might as well be prepared as much as I don't feel like replacing my autolites.

I buy my Autolite 103's at about any auto parts store. Something like $1.25 each.

Walmart? Napa? Just stick with the autolites. They are good plugs.

I have had great luck with NGK's. TR55's with about 50-55 gap worked well for me.

I usually buy them from Randy on MD, I keep using the motorcraft ones and my local dealer charges 3.49 for 1 and Randy sells them for 1.49-1.69.

As listed above, NGK T55s or Autolite's which I run. Get copper, not platinum. Dont forget to change your blinker fluid while you are in there.
