how do my plugs look???

im not an old experienced gearhead. im just learning as i go, so i thought id ask you guys....

i kinda expected them to be more fouled with carbon since i know my car runs rich. the plugs look to me like they are showing a lean condition....

Hey bud,

Your plugs look pretty good. You're looking for a light brown/tan color. Electrode in one pic looks like it's starting to wear (rounded corners). Plenty of life left in those, but you have 'em out so might as well go spend ~$20 in new plugs.

Quick google image search returned this:
