I used antisieze on my 16" Saab BBS snow tire rims. See post below. The antisieze prevented water in the hub interface from getting out. The wheel caps allow water in and the larger 'waist' diameter in the hub bore traps water and it cannot drain out. I am not convinced that there is a solution to this problem with the way things are designed. Thats why I modified my wheels. After next winter I will be able to report the results.
When front wheels get stuck, watch for the hub hub-caps getting bent from the wheel removal as a result of hard corrosion products. What is behind that cap? Just a spine shaft and nut as in the NG900 design?
