I would LOVE to be able to, but i've been on their site and I cannot for the life of me seem to find them... they don't have the selection for the Evo X, only for the Lancer.... I don't know if they are the same plugs or not, but as mentioned already on here, they aren't the correct sized ones, so i'm not getting those.

yeah, the shipping is ridiculous for that little bit of weight, so they get you on that. I will see what my dealer charges tomorrow before I make a decision. Someone pointed out to me that the silvers might not last as long because silver has a lower melting point, so i'm pretty sure I will stick with the OE's.

I can get them for 13.03 already which is fine, the shipping is ridiculous. Everyone uses UPS ground which ALWAYS takes 5 days. USPS gets here in 2-3 days EVERY time and the boxes are in much better shape than coming from UPS.

USPS has some pretty weird rules for businesses. ALL outgoing USPS letters and packages must be taken to the post office, and there's addition issues for packages over a specific size and weight.

USP & Fedex re just too easy - they come to you to pickup and deliver. Unfortunately UPS seems to pride themselves on how badly & often they can damage parcels in the process.

yeah, i've had broken guitars shipped to me because of them, i've had them send things to the wrong address, boxes all beaten to hell.

Is there a dealer on here who has good prices on their parts? (a Mitsu dealer I mean).

I know this is a semi-old thread, but I found our plugs on Rockauto, Part #ILKR8E6, for $9.86 apiece. Dig around google for a 5% off coupon.

I also found an interesting fact, that part # is cross referenced in NGKs catalogue as Part #1422. I just checked Advance autos online store to n oavail. May be something to look into.

OEM's are the best bet. HKS is a no go... DO NOT venture in the realm of HKS for spark plugs on your Evo X. Tons of high hp performing Evo X's had issues with that specific spark plug. Once they switched back to the OEM plugs, their cars performed perfectly.
