I wonder if using good lug nuts is the answer.
Hope I'm not jinxing myself but I've had no problems with the OEM studs. They're 8 years old now and I've taken my wheels off dozens of times because of track use/maintenance. One thing I did early on was replace the OEM lugs nuts with Gorilla closed end ones. Also used a torque wrench and hand tools. So far so good.
