i usually do the bolt-ons using loctite blue (on the spacer lugs only) and just let it cure a day or so before taking it out.

Didn't use any loctite on anything. I put anti-seize stuff on all the threads. Hand tightened as tight as possible for the spacer lugs. I don't have a proper converter socket for my torque bar since the inserting thingie on the bar is to large for any of my sockets other than the 21mm.

yah, the blue on the spacer lugs cause u cant retorque them unless u take off the wheel which imo is a pita.

but if u plan on removing the spacers a couple yrs down the road and will be running it through salty winter, might want to not use the loctite as precaution it might seize.

although u can use a heat gun and get them super hot making the loctite to release..

i dont use antiseize on the lug threads actually. i might use a dab on the hub area on really rusted rotors (buddies' cars).. brake related.

So basically, i am safe. I just need to torque the spacers down more. That should get rid of the slight floatiness in the wheel when forcing it right.
