Sorry - complete newbie here....... I ordered the 15" wheels and tires from GoWesty (they look sort of like Mercedes wheels). When putting on the new wheels should I use anti-sieze compounds? Also, should I just torque them down as tight as I can or get a torque wrench? Should I use a cheater pipe? I ask this because many, many moons ago I changed a flat tire, tightened the bolts, drove away and the wheel almost came off miles later, it was just held on by one bolt when I got home, the others had eazed out! I thought I tightened the bolts enough but I guess not. Thanks........, Markus.
