I don't mean to reiterate what Chris already said, but definately check the torque on the lugs after you get to your FIRST destination post-tightening, and re-check continually that same day out of healthy paranoia.

My lugs came looser than I'd like them to be after one drive post-retightening (two lugs on each front wheel took a half turn to re-tighten to spec). OK, so I'm not the strongest man on earth, but I'd expect them to be solid in place.

Hey, look on the bright side. Bmonje did a rotor slide from 65mph and half his rotor disappeared
