Can I install Bosch Model 4428 spark plugs in my truck

I asked this question during a different discussion on the inoperative blower motor switch but I think our discussion got crossed up so I'm asking this again?

I have a new set of Bosch +4 plugs (Model 4428) and wondered if I could put them in this truck. Alldata.diy says operating temp is 392 @ 10 mph to 1479 @ 80 (I think.) I actually drive around 63 consistently but I'm noticing skipping under load (accelerating). I should buy #4478, but I have these 4428(s) already.

My pickup has the 22R w/ 5-speed drivetrain.

these may be to cold of a heat range or to hot. withot actually seeing one i can't tell you . you should normally only go 1 heat range below or above what is suggested to prevent engine damage. I wold say no, but i don't know heat ranges of Bosch
