I never let chain-store monkeys handle the wheels on any car. I take the wheels and tires off, take them where they need to go, and then fetch them back when they are done with whatever.
PITA? Damn skippy. But it sure beat replacing hubs because of broken studs or worse, snapped lug bolts. Or the time they forgot to tighten my wife's passenger rear lug bolts on her M-B, and the wheel and tire went for a little excursion on their own. That one had a bit of a pucker factor, boys.
The broken lug bolts were my warning. The loose wheel was the final straw.
