Default Spark plug oddness (E91)

So my pal drives down from NYC for me to do a little tune up on his E91. Nothing special. Brakes, belts and tune up. So everything is humming along until I put in the Bosch Double Platinum plugs. I put in those along with fresh OEM coils and the sob wont run yet alone even start. So after swapping back in the old coils, I realize the issue is with the plugs.

Gap was fine and there was no reason I could find why it wouldnt run. I ended up tossing in some NGKs and it was fine. Ive never had this happen with plugs. I could see a rough run or some burping, but no start???
