Read your owners manual. Lug nuts are supposed to be torqued back on to a certain torque setting. Usually 80lbs/ft. Most impact/air wrenches hammer on to around 200lb/ft. This causes the lug but to stretch and deform, and also causes warping issues with the hub.

If you do your own changes, buy a torque wrench
