Iridium plugs are a requirement because the electrode wears much slower and the gap stays in spec much longer and they have the correct electrical resistance. NGK makes the AC Delco plugs that come from the factory. The NGK TR5IX is the OEM replacement. I wouldn't use anything else if you want your engine to run right and last a while. I use AC Delco wires because I know they have the correct resistance and there isn't much price difference when compared to after market.
If you use after market plugs or wires, be sure they conform strictly to OEM specs. Plugs or wires that cause too much resistance will still work but it causes your coils to work harder which will shorten their lifespan. Also, once your plugs start to wear, the gap will increase much quicker and the spark will be much weaker. This causes less efficient combustion which leads to more unburned fuel in the exhaust gases which will cause the engine to lean the mixture resulting in power loss and in some cases will cause your cats to burn hotter and eventually fail.
These exact circumstances happened to my first Tahoe at 150,000 miles. Replaced the cats at $400 each, and 3 weak coils at $90 each. The mechanic showed me the plugs he removed from the motor and they were way out of spec with only 10,000 miles on them.
I'll never use after market plugs or wires again.

Needing to do a tune-up. Got 115 K on my 2002 Yukon. I need the code for 40% off so I can buy from Advance
I run granatelli wires and e3 plugs, love em
For those of you running Taylor wires, how long are they?
I have an '03 yukon with the melco coils and need 10.5"+ long wires. Summit racing doesn't list the taylor wires for my truck but lists them for pretty much everything else.
Edit: I check taylor's website and the 53005 are 10" long. Not sure they'll fit the melco coils.
