Default what heat range plugs for E85?

I normally run a tr6 range when the car was on 92 but its seems to be too cold and the plugs are not staying clean w teh TR6 now. I know corn burns over 200 deg colder so Im wondering what others experience are.

I run TR6 gapped at .032. No spark blowout to 6800, plug readings look good as well. I see no evidence to change to a different heat range or gap. If you baby your car and dont hit WOT frequently maybe the TR6 plugs could foul.
