Denis, I don't often find the need to disagree with your vast invaluable knowledge but I have been using anti-seize on all my wheel lug bolts & nuts and all my customer's wheel lug bolts & nuts for many years now and have encountered absolutely no disasters. Only wheel nuts & bolts that never seize in place. Properly torqued they will be as they should, staying in place keeping your wheels on the your van.
