Do OEM bosch spark plugs come properly gapped?

iridiums fall under the too much money category. A lot of people have had problems in the past
and some have had good results all dependant on the mods done to the car... personally i run copper plugs now and they work just fine. Replace them with each oil change which forces me to check/replace the plugs fairly frequently. Which in my opinion is a good thing

they work out of the box
I just replaced mine and thought about having to check the gap. After checking the archives, the consenses seems to be, if it's OE, don't worry about re-gapping. Plus, the OE plugs have 3 prongs,... you can't easily re-gap them as with other single prong plugs (like the NGK or Denso).
BTW, I ran them at Watkins Glen last week, and the stock plugs work flawlessly.
