Default Bosch Iridum spark plugs any good???

My aunt got me some Bosch Platinum Iridum fusion spark plugs for christmas. I was just wondering if these plugs were any good or I should trade them in at autozone and just buy something else with the money? Here's the website link for more info.. http://www.boschautoparts.com/Produc...Plugs/IrFusion

I have NGK Iridiums, I got them for free, cuz i wouldn't pay $18 per plug for them, but they really are great.

There isn't really much else I can get at autozone so I might get the store credit and get a new battery because I'm pretty sure I need a new one anyway. So no go on the plugs? With 80,000 miles do you think I should replace the plugs? The guy who had the car before me didn't take great care of it so I doubt they were ever changed.

On a stock car, autolites should be fine, and you should be able to get them at autozone, but I don't wanna lie to you soo....stop by and look?
