Rallye Wheels - Help Needed

GTXDAN said

I mentioned using Nevr-Seez on my lugs on FBBO and was immediately told I'm an idiot and you couldn't do that as the nuts would come loose. Obviously this person never lived in rust country either, because if you didn't use Nevr-Seez on the semi lugs you would never get them off after one winter except with a torch. I've been doing that for 50 years and never had a nut come loose.

I just had a similar discussion with a customer on Thursday. "At [my old job], doing that would get you fired."
"That's why it's still a small company. It's run by idiots. I've been doing it since you being conceived was a wet dream. I've never had one come loose, much less off. Threads only, not on the seat. Tighten them in sequence to the torque spec and it's fine."
He gave me a look like I made up the sequence and torque spec bit.

Worked two years in a diesel shop. They never had a wheel nut come loose either.
