How long were they on there and how were they torqued? I've never had a problem swapping wheels on my vehicles or any of my family that I've done swaps for and I've never used anti-seize. Also go to Princess Auto and buy a couple extra breaker bars and single sockets and put them in your vehicles, those stock wrenches are junk no matter what you've done to the nuts. In a pinch it's also handy for banging on the fuel tank if the pump ever dies.
