Yeah i do it the polish way
Tighten till spins free than back off quarter turn
I would worry more of the wheels getting damaged then the studs
And a little lube on the studs and cones goes a long way
My Dad (the airline mechanic) taught me the same thing!
"Tighten it until it breaks and them back it off a 1/4 turn"
That didn't seem to work on lug nuts, head bolts, main caps etc. My breaker bars just weren't long enough, and I never had enough $$ to buy a "real good" impact gun.
It DID work on valve cover bolts, water pump bolts etc.....
