How long have they been in the car?? What, when they were in, made you think that something was wrong. Just wanna make it more specific.

My guess is that your maps are too rich as idle and not rich enough in the higher rpms.

I thought they were supposed to be tannish colored?

Seems like you could provide some more info on what's wrong, what's right and wtf.

Are you getting any CELs? Are they gapped correctly? Have you tried another set? Is your dist & plug wires good? O2 sensor(s) ok? Smell coming from exhaust? Stock exhaust or aftermarket? Other mods? Idle RPM? Surging Idle?

Not sure what causes the white on the plugs... (lean condition?) I have the same thing going on with my beater (white plugs). I was getting an CEL #1 (O2 sensor), so I replaced it, reset the ECU and no more CEL. I'm gonna get some new NGKs this weekend and see if the color improves.
