According to the previous owner my wheels were last taken off 11 years ago. Three were pretty stuck and the fourth a real PIA to get off. New tires to be installed tomorrow. Should I use grease or Never Seize on the splines upon reinstalling? I have both on hand.
PS- I plan on a lubricant on the splines only, not on the threads for the spinner caps.

 

I think antiseize dries out after a while and may not like the heat. Routine wheel removal, spline cleaning and regreasing will keep all in good order. Bearing grease would be a good consideration.

 

Valerie's comments are spot on. Clean the old grease off throughly and lightly regrease with a high temp axle grease. I like to use a copper based grease like Copaslip. It's a good idea to remove the wheels for a clean and degrease of the splines at least every year or two.
