I disagree with that. If you make them as tight as you can, it can be
too tight, spreading the seat of the wire wheels off the seat from the
stub. You'll end up having a wheel that has play on the spline and is
not reconditionable. Thightening it reasonable is the better solution,
jack the car up after initial tightening and check for play, if there is
play, tighten further.
