The extra fine threads are very, very easy to cross thread. !
The last two sets of new tires I purchased, the person installing the lug nuts.
Put the lug nuts into the socket then pulled the trigger and jammed the lugs on !
Several lugs had to be removed/cut off, using a Dremel tool as they were stripped in place and could not be removed.
Carefully turning the screws backwards until you feel the thread 'click' then turn the screw forward, as Arwen said is the safest method.
