Denso VS Bosche spark plugs

I'm trying to decide which brand would be best for my n55. I'm having a misfire on cylinder 4 so I'm gonna go ahead and replace that one and may as well do the rest.

Any advice would help. Thank you

Both will be fine, the differences are negligible. They come pre-gapped but make sure you double check it though, through shipping, packing etc...they can be off.
Got it! Thanks!

remember a common misfire cause is a bad coil also.

Easy enough to check. Swap the misfire coil with a non misfire coil. If the problem moves you found the culprit.

Oh, good idea. I'll definitely try that.

I would not rule out NGK plugs.

As for coils, if you have more than 100K miles, and you've never done the coils, you might as well do them all when you change the plugs.

Do you happen to know the correct part number for NGK spark plugs? I just want to be 100% sure before I buy a set
