Some argue that I over-tighten the bearings, but I pack mine with Mobil 1 CV/bearing grease. It is a bright red grease that turns brown and gets runny if it is ever overheated.
I replaced my wheel bearings, tightened them down then went on a 450 mile highway trip without stopping for more than 5 minutes on the whole trip.
Upon arrival I inspected the wheel bearings (I thought they were loose, turned out to be ball joints. Long story) and all of the grease was still a nice happy bright red color, and there was no play at all in the wheel bearings.
