Do you grease your wheel lugs?
Just wondering what the general consensus is for a track car that has the wheels removed frequently. Do you use any kind of grease or anti-seize on your wheel lugs? Or do you keep them dry?

Drop or two of regular motor oil per some of the work shop manuals.

I do eventhough I don't think you are supposed to...except for maybe a drop of oil as Hacker-Pschorr states. If you're super **** retentive you leave it off since grease contributes to over torquing.

I would say if the wheels are removed frequently than no lubrication or anti-seize is necessary. I think it would be more beneficial to use those liquids when the wheels are not changed frequently.

So, it looks like just a dab of lube to achieve proper torque values. But not so much that my nuts get sloppy (not that there's anything wrong with that ) Thanks all !!!
