Spark Plug reading???

I pulled out few spark plugs from my car and they all seem to look the same.

They had a light brown deposits on the electrode. No damege to any of them. No oil deposits.

The car runs fine, and the plugs are about 10 mnt. old.(15,000 km on them). I am using stock replacement plugs AC Delcos.

Is that a right color for the plugs? Does anybody have pictures of their spark plugs showing good or bad signs?

Thanks

they usually call that condition Tan, and thats pretty much where you want it.

guess the thing you really have to look out for is white, that means a lean mixture.
