Default Time for some new spark plugs

I just wanted to get ya'lls opinion upon which spark plugs i should use. I'm tryin to decide whether it's worth it to spend a little extra cash and go with the iridium spark plugs or just go with copper. Which would ya'll recommend based upon the mods in my sig?

Don't waste your money on high dollar plugs, not worth it.

When I purchased my stang 3 years ago it came with the Denso Iridium plugs. I have had no problems with them at all. I pulled them a few weeks ago to see if I needed to replace them, they still look just as good as new. "They are very expensive." If I had to replace them I would go along with the other guys in this thread unless you had the money to throw away.

I would consider putting them in my F150 5.4 because those plugs are a bear to replace.
