I actually took my lugnuts off the first time I put them on thinking something was wrong and just to inspect the lugs and lo'and behold the sides of the lug nut was way more scratched up compared to before. So yeah, like you mentioned it could be that the lug nuts are binding to the side of the wheel causing it to feel tight... not the wrench/socket... i'm sure this is what you meant right?

Oh, now I'm not too sure what I mean.

I just figure that if lug nuts are put on proper the first time ...... they shouldn't have to be re-tightened ....... under non racing use.

Stepping on a breaker bar is dangerous, as it might snap and cut/hit you pretty good. Use that as a last resort.
