also remember that our cars wheels are hub centric, the hub snout locates the wheel on itself and takes the load too, the bolts assist in keeping the wheel flat on the hub face. Due to this reason monumental torque is not required on the bolts.

as SRJ pointed out on the antisieze compound on the threads of the lug bolts - I have seen it being used on some volvos and BMWs along with a spray of grease on the hub/disc face to prevent the wheel sticking on it.
