This. Also the stock nuts self centre in the wheel anyway so as long as you are not a ham fisted idiot who likes to fully tighten each nut at a time .....

Yep your photo. If the rear wheel nuts are in the factory-staked position they're not properly torqued. Easy with the right wrench and a bit of grease.
The axle nuts are under-torqued at the factory. TSB indicates they need an additional amount of torque that conveniently corresponds to an additional 60° of rotation or one flat of the nut. Details in our library. This TSB has been well documented for several years but many of us are new to these cars and previous owners were unaware of the problems.
