I think the problems with the factory NKG'* are the little platinum square that it fused to the top electrode. It sometimes breaks off and does valve damage. These new TR55-IX I'm using now only have an Iridium center electrode, so there'* nothing to break off.
Ya, when I replaced mine with far less mileage than yours, the gap was up to 65 thou on all of them.
NKG actually claims that they are 1 1/2 ranges colder than the stock ones.
Be careful that you don't go too cold until you do some more mods, like a smaller pulley or they may foul. Check them after a while to be sure.

Whoa. That must be a series 1 Matt93. Hardly any wrap on that SC. No wonder an oversized pulley works for you guys more effectively than the series II where the tensioner is on the other side and there is at least 30 degrees more wrap.
