trust me it costs ninety bucks from the dealer.
anyway you cant get some tires off without it cause they seize on their.
and the lug nuts do as well.

Been drving for a long time, and been driving, and working on, Land Rovers for 30+ years. I've never had one seize. I have had them on so tight a regular lug wrench wouldn't remove them. But that was because the last joker used an impact wrench.

but cleaning everything and torquing down guarantees nothing its just how long the vehicle sits without taking the rims off.

and no I dont recommend antiseize on the threads. the hubs and the rims yes,
but no the threads.

As mentioned above, I've been working on Land Rovers a while. I always use anti seize on the threads (after the first application I don't use it again for a year or so), and always tourqued to 100ft/lbs. I've never had one seize, and never had one come loose.
