Nothing wrong with them at all. Checking brakes, swapping wheels front to rear to even tyre wear cleaning inside of wheels, swapping to and from winter wheels. Just a general car nut tinkering. Had the wheels off my Mini today changing brake fluid and bleeding brakes.Same here, but really can't be bothered to do my own stuff now.
Hand start the nut/bolt, wind in with gun just until contact, lower car so wheel is just touching ground then torque up.Don'yt put lower car to ground until wheel cap is on, don't put wheel cap on until wheels are torqued.
I use a smear of oil as I hate copper slip as the stuff always seems to get everywhere...........put a smear on the bolt and somehow its up your arm,in your ear, on the door handle of the car 30ft away.
To the person that has their wheels on and off several times a year, what is wrong with them that they need this so often?, mine are done once a year when its serviced.
