We had a set of wheels that we hubbed/dehubbed a good 5+ times last year. Only issue was the screws backing out over time (the heads were rubbing on the bumper) and we had to retighten them. I don't think they got looser overtime, if anything they got tighter and retightening them was very difficult.
