Someone did a deal on here about the added stress of the slight deflection of the wheel studs when tightened.
Most wheel studs are rated to higher loads than actually needed as a safety factor but it comes down to this: Do you want to risk the lugs shearing as your cruising down a backroad or the racetrack at 120. Not me.
