Default Spark Plugs

What would be the best spark plugs for 2000 SSEi? About 50k miles ago I put some split fires and there and I think I have to replace them already. Is this it too early to be replacing plugs and wires or does this sound about right? I am changing them because I feel a slight hesitation when the engine is under load.

with the 3.4 I would say 1 step cooler plugs, either ngk-tr55 iridiums for longevity or autolote 605'* for performance.
