Didn't notice before, but more evidence these are the same plugs as the ones you buy from your BMW dealer, ZGR6STE2 is stamped right into the metal body of the BMW plugs.

Are they perhaps too thick?
Yes, it's exceptionally thin in order to reach down into the extra-narrow channel, probably due to direct injection. Not sure what alternatives there are. I'd guess the socket is only 1mm thick at the points.
