    Which NGK Spark Plugs Are Best?

    So I was doing a little research into NGK Spark Plugs (the most recommended kind for our beloved e46's) and I noticed that there's different kinds of them. I want to ask of all of the different kinds of NGK Spark Plugs, which would be best?

    IX [https://www.amazon.com/NGK-Iridium-S...nts=p_89%3ANGK]
    G-Power (not even sure what this means) [https://www.amazon.com/NGK-7092-Spar...nts=p_89%3ANGK]
    V-Power (it's an inline engine so probably not this one) [https://www.amazon.com/NGK-V-Power-S...nts=p_89%3ANGK]

    Or maybe there's another kind I'm unaware of that's even better?

    None of those. The only plug to put in an M54 engine is the NGK BKR6EQUP.

    I thought multiple ground electrodes was overall a bad idea, since if one were to ever break off into the cylinder, you could cause some serious damage to your engine.

    Any electrode breaking off is bad but you lower the chance of that happening with multiple electrodes due to the increase in surface area and lower temperatures.
