What should I ask to be Serviced? 7500 miles

I am bringing my coupe in to it's 7500 mile service appointment. What can I get away with asking for? I seen wipes changed because they're "noisey" and leather changed because it look too worn. Really things I would never think off.
So what do I ask for (beside an oil change).

My book lists Engine Oil and Filter, Fluid levels, Rotate Tires, check front brakes, lubricate locks and hinges, check belts & hoses, check lights and lenses, and check steering and suspension.
If it were me, and I had no other issues, I'd tell them to just change the engine oil and filter.

do we really need to rotate the tires at 7500? i know if we want an even wear on the tires, we should, but is it that off? Just dont want to take it to the dealer and have them charge me an insane amount of money for it

Can't really rotate the coupe tires since the backs are different size from the fronts.

Side to side rotation is not recommended.

What would be the purpose of side to side rotation? Theoretically, both sides should wear evenly assuming your allignment is correct.

If we're talking about the 18" tires, you can't swap it side to side because they are directional, meaning they need to rotate in a set direction. There's an arrow on the tire to indicate the direction it needs to rotate.

yes, you can swap side to side.
just the tires switch not the rims.
the tires comes off, switch sides and the arrow remains in the same direction

that's true you can do that... but then you run the risk of scratching rims more often.
