I think that's the solution-- don't slobber so much on the threads can't grab, but just enough you can't get rust / chemical seizure between the metals.


There are numbers for how much you should decrease torque for a "oiled" fastener-- it's about 25%.


I use 70 ft-lbs and sparingly anti-seized lug nuts.
