i've been running the W7DTC for about 60,000 miles now and love them. :)

>about installing - they look as if they may have a longer reach than the >stock plugs - any suggestions/comments? Also I am in need of 1 alloy wheel

yup. they are a tiny bit longer, but do not interfere with anything in the combustion chamber.

so far, i'm very happy with them. but 50,000 miles is TOO long to leave them in ... the electrodes had been pretty badly erroded ... worn enough that the gap had just about doubled. but now, they were still working fine, even in that condition. :)
