Securing Wheel Spacers

I'm adding a set of wheel spacers to my new widebody. What does everyone use on the threads?

First thought was to use antiseize, then thought that locktight might be better.

What is the general rule of thumb?

Thanks
Mark

NO loctite!

Antiseize is typically used on the threads and the seat of the lugnuts. Especially important on the seat so the lugs don't bind in the wheel recesses. 96 ft-lbs is the torque spec.

Thank you kindly, that was my first thought.

Thanks also for the torque spec.

Cheers!
