Default Grease on wheel studs

Im looking to prevent rust and corrosion from building up on my wheel studs...
What kind of grease can I put on my wheel studs to prevent this?
Any all purpose grease?

You can, I would clena it with some PB Blaster and a wire brush to get all the rust off first.

Put some anti-seize on the studs.

Be sure to use the copper based as opposed to lead based anti-seize.

You never put grease on wheel studs. Just clean them. Grease adds lubrication and you can over stretch the studs.

stretching the studs isn't the reason to not put grease on wheel them.
