I don't use grease, but I do use anti-seaze compound (both on the
threads
and on the taper between the wheel and the nut). There are at least two
kinds of anti-seaze (copper or aluminum based), I'm only familiar with
the
al type.

And some of us who are gray on top have our old, preciously guarded,
probably illegal tins of lead-based anti-seize, which, in many
applications,
is the best anyone has ever come up with.

I don't waste it on wheel studs. I'm afraid I won't be able to buy it
again.
