First, is there any harm in using anti-seize compound on the lug nut studs?

Second, my owners manual recommends 135 ft.lbs. of torque on my lug nuts. Can I set them all to 125 and still be ok?

Thanks!

I dont think you would want to use anti-seize. you dont want the backing off at all when driving down the road superscared i just feel mine up with wd-40 and then screw then down and have never had a problem with them coming back off or working loose over time. I would think 125 would be fine but i dont know for sure i dont have a torque wrench i just use a 4-way and get them PFT (pretty f*ing tight)
