Are the fine wire plugs worth the extra money?

They don't foul nearly as easily as massive electrode plugs and run a little smoother.

In the past with a rental I had the massive plugs foul on two separate occasions. I was aggressively leaning on the ground but who knows what all the other renters were doing. As a result I went with fine wires and always aggressively lean to the point where the engine will not operate past taxi RPM. I have never had the airplane foul in over ten years of ownership.
