I have noticed that most resistors seem to have drifted high over the years. That said, I have noticed that some resistors drifted low. I never noticed a pattern as to wattage rating or any other factor.

Personally, I only replace resistors that are more than 10% off nominal value. Hopefully this tactic won't bite me down the road.
