How do you cross thread lug nuts if you remove them completely by hand and install them completely by hand?
I've never had issues with the OEM nuts, I always thread it fully by hand before even using a ratchet.
People typically aren't really cross threading them. They deform threads from dragging wheels across the studs or get metal shavings/grime in the threads and then the nut seizes.
