Default Spring clean up...

While detailing my car and switching winter tires off my gf boxster. The key to her locking lugs broke... with led to a bit of messing around but no huge deal. I began to think that my gt3 has locks on it and not wanting a situation like this on my car as I take the wheels off at least twice a month to clean inside and detail in wheels wells/brakes. At 10 yrs old and 28k km (9k of which were from me since last spring , 3 track days If that matters) Do you guys replace all usually? Ti?. All new stock porsche ones?. Anything else in there I should replace that me be fatigued at this time. Cheers

Ignition coils: beru zs178
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Porsche-911...4AAOSwWupa2lvF
plugs: bosch Y5DDC
https://www.ebay.com/itm/6-Pieces-OE...sAAOxyD5pRI-xk
Brake fluid: go with Castrol SRF

Brake Pads:
It's really dealer choice depends on application

Transaxle: I had really good experience with the Amsoil Severe gear 75/90 but of course delvac1

I wouldn't even bother with the Cup2s go with Bridgestone RE71Rs, last longer and grip harder
