Stuck on Wheels

[My other womans a vw.]

Recently fitted mudflaps on mine at 500 miles and the wheels put up a bit of a fight.
Glad I did it,like others have said,imagine pulling and writhing on a wheel at the side of a busy road.
Put copper grease on mine as well,but I’m sure it says in the manual not to.

I put slightly too much copper grease on my hubs after having all wheels off to paint the hubs Hammerite silver.
The grease leached out with heat and rotation and I spent the next t 6 months frequently cleaning wheels and hubs of the greasy film. Once all was gone and wheels off again for a thorough clean I fitted them again but dry this time!
If I get a puncture out somewhere and they stick I will just call for assistance.
I would comment that in 50 years of driving all types of car, I have never had a roadside puncture.
Now that IS tempting fate!

Am I correct in thinking the 7 is like the 7.5 and the pad wear can be checked electronically via software? I seem to recall being told to the mm how much the pads had worn or had left.
