Spark Plugs for N55
The OEM BMW branded spark plug part number is ZR5TPP33-S
After reading up on the topic it appears that the consensus is that the Bosch ZR5TPP33 is listed as an OEM replacement but that it is not as good as the BMW branded one above. The only visual difference was the BMW logo or lack thereof and the part number stamped on the metal shoulder. So I ordered a set of ZR5TPP33-S from Rockauto. It was listed as OE so assumed it would be the BMW branded plugs. I just received them today and find that they arrived in Bosch boxes and they are branded as Bosch Double Platinum and not BMW. They are however stamped with the correct part # ZR5TPP33-S. Will install and see how they do.

They should be perfectly fine. No need to shell out extra money just to have the BMW logo stamped on a part that's identical to begin with.
