Grease betwen wheel and rotor?

[andyd]

I first ran into this trouble over 25 yrs ago when I went to swap on snow tires. I've been greasing the hubs and lugs ever since. I use the lug wrench I keep in the vehicle to tighten them . I havent lost a wheel or had any difficulty removing one either. You guys do what you want, I know what works for me.

I use a castor-based "rubber" grease that doesn't seem to leach oil. It's normally used in brake hydraulics.

Antiseize works fine for me. Wheels, rotors, drums, etc. come right off with no trouble.

Anyone who has had to hammer off a rotor or wheel because it corroded to the hub can appreciate the value of greasing this interface.
