It does provide some lubrication for the threads, so, if you're real picky, you may want to adjust tightening torque. It works great at preventing rust/corrosion/galling (if you are using stainless-on-stainless fasteners, some form of anti-seize is a must to minimize galling) and makes removal much easier.
I know this is an old thread; but i've been using antiseize for over 25 years,,,originally started on heavy trucks (with Budd wheels) and carried on from there.
never had an issue with stripped or broken studs-i even use on my ~Z~
I was looking up to see what people were torquing their wheels too & 80ft.lbs. seems a bit weak.....i've been evenly torquing mine to 100ft.lbs. without any issues.
