When you install mew ITP wheels you will check and retighten if necessary the lug nuts after some riding. I put 15 miles on mine and even though they were plenty tight to the correct 50 ft/lb torque as required they were starting to become loose and I needed to re tighten them. I would check them occasionally until they take a set.

Re loctite the blue is med strength and red is hi that would need heat or special tools to remove.

Not that you should need it, but the blue is the one that you could use.
