What about using anti-seize on wheel studs?.... 1997 965 189K miles 900 1997

If you've ever owned four Volvos, all requiring a biennial change of wheels to accommodate snow tires, then antiseize on the wheel studs becomes a necessity. I've used it for twenty years without any problems and in the process saving my back from rusted wheel nuts. Apply a gob to the threads and a small amount to the cone, then torque the nut in two steps (about 60% final torque and then 100% torque). Never a problem, never a loosened nut, and never a warped rotor. And always ease of removal.
