Wheel Paint
This is not meant to blame or shame anyone
I got a set of really nice, freshly repainted wheels from a friend with Toyo R888Rs mounted on them. I was having trouble keeping proper lug nut torque, they seemed to be backing off?!?!?
Turns out that they painted the contact surface where the nut mates up to the wheel. OEM wheels don't have paint there. I did not know, nor did I notice it before running on the track. Now I know. Cleaned the paint off and made sure that was no over spray on the mating surface of the wheel where it goes against the rotors.
All better. Lesson learned
