I've always heard that putting anti seize on studs is a bad idea. Shrug.

Small amount, droplet, teeniee weenie amount, not even everytime you remove/replace the wheel. It's a bad idea when you lather the studs with it

You don't have enough patience to watch a 10 minute video, that contains sound engineering concepts and explains the differences between dry torque and lubricated torque rating?

Do you guys use impact guns on the studs?

I never personally do, but I've seen/had shops that use the impact guns to remove/install the lugs, and then do a final torque down with a torque wrench.
I wish they would just do everything by hand and with a torque wrench/breaker bar and not touch the gun.

I use impact gun to remove lug nuts and impact gun at low power to spin them back on (after gently putting them on by hand to make sure they are properly engaged without cross-threading). You get a feel for how much power you're using and yes, you can tighten them without overtorquing them with the impact gun. I follow up with a torque wrench to tighten down to final spec and find that I'm mostly right on the money, never overtorqued them. Fingers crossed, knock on wood, I have never broken any OEM studs in my 5+ years of track and removing/replacing wheels all through that.

I have a habit of breaking them loose with a breaker bar first then shoot it off. Putting it back on, I spin about 2-3 resolution before I shoot it on on low setting then torque to 85-88.
