I have heard from both camps on this but thought I would throw it out there to people I respect.
I've always heard, and practiced, that wheel studs should be dry whenever mounting wheels. This made sense to me at first but now I can't reconcile how it's a problem. I mean if you lube the main cap and head bolts before installation and they stay in, how is lubing a wheel stud any different? I have seen people put either a little anti seize or oil on the studs with no problem. So what's the skinny?
