No, they are designed to be just snug. Do not preload the bearing by torquing it.

How do you remove locking wheel nuts?

Find a socket that is slightly smaller than the lock nut. Hammer it on with a 5lb sledge and take it off with a breaker bar. Use a socket that you won't miss as you will never get the nut out of it. This is an old wives tale, it does not work on modern locking nuts, the spinning ring prevents it. Google ' locking wheel nuts removed . com'
