Forged Lug Nut Feedback - Toyota Yaris Forums

Anyone have any horror stories. Are people using Anti-Sieze (dissimilar metal corrosion)? How many removal/installation cycles are they good for?

Thanks,
Ken

use anti-seize even on standard nuts.

I always do, just heading off possible comments in that direction.

I use anti-seize on the back of aluminum wheels where they contact the steel hub or drum. Not on steel lugnuts though. Although I would if I ever installed the aluminum lugs sitting on the shelf.
