Yes do it. I lasted less than 7k miles on oem plugs before WOT issues. New M plugs and 25k miles later without an issue.

Get the M if they're cheaper. Otherwise NGK are the best option. When I wrote the DIY the Ms were running $4 a piece for some reason. Now they're like quadruple that I think. Been awhile since I looked them up though.
Were the plugs new oem when u had wot issues ? Or the plugs were old?
About 25k total when changed
