Not to mention most people dont even use proper tq equipment to put their wheels on, factory wheels of course are far more likely to not do so. With all that being said, they get antisiezed becasue breaking rusty ass, gummed up lugnuts and studs sucks.

> Hell I have antisized every lug I ever owned, my family ever owned, and any car that comes to me that doesnt already have something on it. Never had a wheel come off, or even loosen up becasue of it. We arnt installing headbolts here, its a hand full of wheel lugs. TQ them accordingly and they arent going anywhere for a daily driver.

I put some on the thread of a hub when I replace one or replace a set of rotors. Never had a single problem on the 100s of cars that I’ve done this on. Also I don’t torque a lug nut on anything (impact gun goes click click). I have however seen lugs loosen when installed with a torque stick that is a few years old.

> Well wheels I put on have ten lug nuts and they get set to 500ftlbs. I’ve seen them come loose. We check 2 days after they go back into service and you’d be surprised how loose they get when lubed.

You work on buses right?
