Paul, I use a readily available graphite grease on the splines and hub. I
use Permatex anti-seize compound on the threads. Remember also to re-grease
them every 6 months whether you drive it or not. This regular greasing
helps keep the splines in good shape, and the regular removing of the wheels
keeps them from freezing on as mine did when I bought the car, and then had
a flat tire.
Good Luck

I have just rebuilt my front end and am putting the final touches on. With
the Wire wheels I need some help as to what grease to put on the splines
and on the pig ear knock offs. Should I use white grease or something
similar or am I am I all wet. Any assistance would be great.
