Denso Iridium and NGK Iridiums & Platinums seem to be the favourite.

I used OEM NGK PZFR6F-11, it what Honda recommend so why not use them. Ebay are cheapest at £15 for all 4.

NGK BKR6E-11 will do fine as well. But will need changing after 10-15K miles since they're not platinum.

I run BKRE7E and change the gap from 11 (1.1mm) to 1.0mm as my engine is high compression and tuned hot.
