I always used cheap rattlecan enamel spraypaint on the hubs AND THREADS, it keeps stuff from rusting, peels right off when you remove the lugs...

My F150 required loosening driving in a circle to get the wheels off(first flat was fun...) started using the cheep paint, never happened again.
just a opinion- use at own risk

Hey Tim,
Thanks for the advise. I will look into the cam lube. I went ahead and used the antiseize on all wheels since I didn't find the MolyDS grease yet. And I hear ya about it lasting forever and not going away. Will use sparingly if I find it.
