I've had this car for just about 1 year now and and have installed the steal lugs with anti seize on the shoulder only. After about 4000 street miles and close to 200 miles of track time at Sebring which is very fast and very rough in spots, I have not had a lug loosen. And I check often... Works for me
BTW, I'm using 16" Fuch's with steal lugs. I have not seen any torque spec that differentiates between steal or alum lugs. My guess is that it would be the same for either because in my Bentleys is talks about overtorquing causing the hub to warp.
