Make sure you use a torque wrench on your wheel nuts (otherwise they may work loose ... and yes I have seen it happen on alloy wheels) ... and for Pete's sake they only need to be torqued to something like 40 ftlbs ... not 1200 like some monkeys do. All that over torquing them leads to is damaged wheels and broken studs/bolts.
