Hoter spark plug

I would like to change spark plug on my ranger 4.0L 1999. I would like to put hoter spark plug. Actually there are NGK TR55GP. I looked on NGK web site to know the the number of new one. I found a chart but it is not verry clear for me.

You can find this chart at this address

http://www.ngksparkplugs.ca/documents/partnumberkey.pdf

I seem to be the first number that determin the Heat rating. Scale seem to be between 4 and 6. Can I chose number TR65GP ?

It looks like you'd want a TR45 and not the other way around.

Why do you want a hotter plug? Are you having issues with the plugs fouling?
