On big trucks Ive used antisieze or a drop of oil.If you use antisieze you dont have to use a bunch of it and if it gets built up you need to clean it off of the threads just like if the threads are rusty it helps to clean the rust off with a wire brush or a wire brush on a die grinder and then a drop of oil will make getting them off a lot easier usually.If they have been on a long time and are badly rusted you may need to heat them up.On all of it you need to be sensible.You dont need to heat it glowing red and you dont need to coat every part of the lug bolt with antiseize.I dont see a lot of difference in using antiseize or a drop of oil on big truck wheels.Time and rust will make it hard to get them off.They might come off a little better with the antisieze especially on aluminum wheels.
Now as for Wal Mart not being able to get your wheels off of an F150,I dont know.I think you could get a break over bar and get them broke loose,or heat them a little.I havent ever seen car or pickup wheels I couldnt get the lug nuts off of.Ive seen some that were overtightened with an impact wrench.If you want to put antisieze on them and torque them they ought to be alright,but if you put them on dry you still ought to be able to get them off.It might be difficult,and probably will be more difficult than with antisieze on them,but you should be able to get them off if you torque them right when you put them on.

Today's Featured Article - Product Review: JB Weld - by Staff. JB Weld is basically an epoxy glue that does an exceptionally good job of bonding to cast iron and steel along with several other materials. As I mentioned, it is so common that I have yet to buy a tractor that did not have JB Weld used somewhere. It is sometimes used so well you can't tell its there and other times used as a sloppy quick fix. Finding where and how it can be used correctly is key to whether you are using it as an "inelegant hack" or an integral solution to difficult and expens ... [Read Article]
