So the new set of plugs arrived, so switched out them along with new wires, since two broke during work (Magneti Marelli) and since I already tested and bought a new coil pack basically the whole ignition system's now revamped.

So far after more than two hours of driving, no problems, but Im really careful since I dont wan to find out Im wrong, but it feels ok.

The old plugs where NGK, and after pulling them, their resistance measured on average about 4 kohms.

I kept the previous set, which where Beru's and they measured ~1.4 kohms.

The new set is Bosch, and Im going to stay away from NGKs since I drive a little bit sporty, lasted less than two years, and (I think) 20'000 km.

Pros: no problems after revamp
Cons: NGKs lasted less
Mileage: 20000 km

You're on the right track- replace those worn out plugs. Pre-detonation started on my '18 at 30k. Increasing octane rating to 93 worked up to 58k miles. $50 for a new set of [Autolite Iridium XP5363](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B078KWTCF2?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share) resolved this problem.

Pros: resolved pre-detonation problem
Vehicle: Ford
Mileage: 30000 km
Part number: XP5363

Bosch Spark plug

Bosh Double Iridium is the best value. AC Delco as well as the NGK only have an iridium electrode. The Bosh plugs have iridium laser welded to the ground electrode as well. The advantage is that it stays cleaner when it gets up to temperature and will have virtually no wear. Don't get Autolite. Their plugs are almost always out of spec. Out of the box you can ohm them out and 1 of the 4 is guaranteed to be out of spec.

Pros: stays cleaner, virtually no wear
Cons: Autolite out of spec
Vehicle: Chevrolet Volt

Autolite Spark plug

Once we got a good local supplier for Motorcraft plugs a few years ago we almost never install Autolite.

Pros: good local supplier
Cons: almost never install
