    I bought 6 Autolite XP Xtreme Performance Iridium Enhanced Spark Plugs from Autozone. They have the .6mm finewire design. Are these spark plugs ok to use? They also told me for my truck it needs to be gapped at .44 but on here you guys reecomend from .39 to .43. Thanks guys

    Not knowing what engine you have (2.7 or 4.0) makes it difficult for anyone to help.

    Personally, I would not run Autolite plugs. I always stick with OEM or factory replacements... NGK or Denso for a Toyota.
    Gap should be on the emissions sticker under the hood.
