DITTO. As barbaric as this method is for holding the wheels on a car, works great: very light coating of anti seize, lead hammer, drive car brake/accelerate/brake several miles, set again with lead hammer, safety wire. After 50 – 100 miles give them another whack to see if they’re fully set. You can feel and hear when they are set, spinner & hammer will resonate. I would never recommend any kind of wood, plastic, rubber, etc, method here.
