cn90, good to see you again. I still owe you for the relay. I'd still be glad to paint a car for you.

Great picture.. quite a lot of interesting mods going on there.. Can't imagine you get much life out of the tires though.

Ultimately the lugs shouldn't be on that tight... In a jam this is a great idea.
Wisdom requires knowledge as a prerequisite, but knowledge can be developed due to a lack of wisdom.
In order to learn how to fix something, you must first learn how to break it.

When I buy any used car, this is what I do for the wheels to avoid seized wheels:
1. Jack up each wheel.
2. Remove all the lugs and remove the wheel.
If the wheel is seized onto the hub (snow area with salt), there is trick in forum to undo it, search for the tricks.
3. Apply anti-seize around the hub bore. Also a bit of anti-seize on each lug (about "one drop" of anti-seize).
4. Now your wheel can be replaced in the middle of nowhere without being seized.
