Default Issue Installing Wheel Craft Wheels

I have an older set of Cobra Wheel Craft pin drive wheels with adapters that are very difficult to install the wheels on the adapters.

The first time I installed the wheels took several hours hitting the wheels and tires and then the spinner with a rubber mallet to get them on.

After that I got a lead hammer but taking the wheels off or putting them on still takes quite a while. Should I put anti seize compound, grease, oil or something on the mating surfaces.

When first putting the wheels on they will not go on far enough to get the spinner started on the threads on so I have to push and beat on the tires with a mallet for ever to get the spinner on and then use the lead hammer for another 30 - 60 minutes to get the wheel seated good.

Has anyone had this issue or have suggestions to help this situation?

Thanks,

Steve
