the wheel should turn opposite the threads, or in a tightening motion.
if we use the old phrase, righty tighty etc., then the passenger side =
moves to the right, tightening. the driver side moves to the left, so =
its threads must be reversed.
right?

A close call for sure. Left side has RH threads, etc.
They really do tighten as you drive (I experimented with a Sharpie to =
mark and track orientation) but they have to be fairly snug for that =
action to work.

Yeah, but you'd be amazed at how much damage that second wheel can do =
while parting company with the car.
You might want to check that the adapters are on the correct sides. =
The spinners should be self-tightening, but they will
self-loosen if the adapters are flipped between sides.
Unfortunately I forget offhand whether the left side gets the LH =
threads or vice versa, but I'm sure someone else knows.
Also double-check that the nuts that hold the adapters are as tight as =
they should be.
