Since lug nuts are used to hold the wheels on your car or truck you really don't want to lube or grease them at all. If the lug posts and nuts are rusted, however, you can use a rust removal compound or some WD40 to clean off the rust. To remove the oily residue from the WD40, spray the posts and nuts with brake parts cleaner - it dries quickly and leaves no film or residue behind.
