Quick Q: Anyone use anti-seize on there wheel studs?

I am just changing over to my snow rims/tires, and notice that there is a little rust I can't clean off on the studs. I would like to put some anti-seize, but I don't want it to act like grease and have a tire come loose. Any advice?

This worked for me.
Take your rims off spray some wd40 on the stud and clean them with a battery terminal brush(silver unit with metal wires in it)

I have always used 'never-seize' on all of my vehicles and it has worked great. Have had no problem with the lugs coming loose after being tourqued. It is not a spray type like WD-40 though, it is more the consistency of a grease.

Thx for the advice guys. I did end up putting a dab on each stud of anti-seize. On the internet, I found a couple posts that seemed to say it was safe to use "half a pea" worth of anti-seize on each stud.
