I've seen situations where someone used crappy lug nuts for winter that ended up rust fusing to the steelie. It took hours of WD40 saturation to get it loosened.

At the time, having an impact wrench to just attempt to carelessly zipping it off would have been nice (Didn't want to leave the one random tire in case the vehicle needed to be used in an emergency). Undoing everything and reversing the tire change so that there wouldn't be one random different tire was a PITA (It was a size down for winter, so mismatching would have been kinda weird). Also at the time, I was kinda dumb and thought it would be a bigger issue to have that one random tire, until my buddy pointed out it would have been no worse than someone putting on the donut spare.
