hi,I have found that tightening aluminum wheels and other parts down tight, causes the aluminum edge of hole to roll inward and grasps the shaft of the bolt tightly. therefore , it is locked!!!! I toruqe my 5/8 wheel nuts to 65 #. I've had to run a round file through the wheel holes at times to take out the lip.just food for thought.
