They will last longer than regular plugs but cost a whole lot more.

Hesco, the folks that built my charger kit, do not recommend platinum
plugs. I figure they should know.

They don't work in the 258's from what I have seen.

I see good results with Champion plugs.

Ditto Mike's comment. For some reason, Bosch plugs don't work in Jeep
engines... at least most of the time. Really strange. I'd stick with
something like Champion Truck plugs (which I have used but they didn't last
as long as the next one), Autolite Platinums (as I have been using with
great luck), AC-Delco, etc.

GM vehicles don't much like the Bosch's either. In GMs I'd use Delco,
in the Jeeps and the Harley's I use Champion.
